摘要: The gas ionization sensors (GISs) using the carbon nanotube (CNT) pillars which has the pillar height (H) of 15 mu m with interpillar spacing (R) of 30 mu m as the cathode had been proposed for the first time to exhibit the 20 times higher field enhancement factor (beta) and the lower breakdown voltage of 350V with respect to the CNT film ones for nitrogen gas at the pressure of 0.035 Torr. As the H increased from 5 mu m to 15 mu m, the beta increased with increasing the H since the electrical field could be enhanced via the aspect ratio increment. However, as the H increased from 15 mu m to 60 mu m, the beta decreased with increasing the H owing to the increased field-screening effect. Such an optimum GIS with the CNT pillars also exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for different kinds of gases detection as well as the good linearity for detecting the gas mixture.
