Chemical vapour deposited ZnO nanowires for detecting Ethanol and NO2

Randomly oriented ZnO nanowires were grown directly onto alumina substrates having platinum interdigitated screen-printed electrodes via the chemical vapor deposition method using Au as catalyst. Three different Au film thicknesses (i.e., 3, 6 or 12 nm) were used in the growth of nanowires, and thei...
