Fabrication of Ag₂O/WO₃ based sensors for detection of hydrogen sulfide by Ahmad Al-Sarraj (17151007)

“…</p><p dir="ltr">Moreover, the effect of annealing and comparison with physical mixing was studied and showed that non-annealed Ag-loaded WO₃ produced the best response. The results can be attributed to the decrease in the energy bandgap due to increasing the Ag content and the strong interaction between the Ag and WO₃ and silver to silver oxide transformation at low annealing temperatures. …”
