Abstract

Single-crystalline tin dioxide (SnO₂) nanobelts have been assembled with microfabricated suspended heaters as low-power, sensitive gas sensors. With less than 4 mW power consumption of the micro-heater, the nanobelt can be heated up to 500°C. The electrical conductance of the heated nanobelt was found to be highly stable and sensitive to toxic and inflammable gas species including dimethyl methyl phosphonate (DMMP), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), and ethanol. The experiment is a step towards the large scale integration of nanomaterials with microsystems, and such integration via a directed assembly approach can potentially enable the fabrication of low-power, sensitive, and selective integrated nanosensor systems.
