    Preparation of SrFeO3-X thin films by the spin-coating method and its gas sensing properties

    Nanostructured coatings have recently attracted increasing interest because of the possibilities of synthesizing materials with unique physical-chemical properties. In this report we describe our efforts at developing a methodology for the fabrication of SrFeO3-X based thin films using a modified Pechini method. Thin films of SrFeO3-X were fabricated using a spin coating and PLD method on Al2O3. The films annealed at 600 \uc2\ub0C for one hour show a perovskite phase. The sensors based on SrFeO3-X thin films on alumina were fabricated using spin coating and PLD techniques. The sensing properties were determined using propane and propene as the probing gases. Response characteristics and temperature dependency of spin coated and PLD fabricated samples were compared. The effect of the electrode material, Au and/or Pt, on the gas detection sensitivity of the SrFeO3-X thin films was also investigated.Peer reviewed: YesNRC publication: Ye
