Abstract

, showing relatively much lower ∼4.28, 3.42, 6.43, and 3.51% responses, respectively, at 50 °C for 50 ppm gas concentration. The impedance measurements also substantiate the same as the observed surface resistance is initially more than bulk, which reduces after introducing the hydrogen gas during sensing measurements. The humidity does not show any significant change in the hydrogen response, which is ∼20.5 ± 1.5% for a large humidity range (from 10 to 65%). More interestingly, the devices are robust against sensing response, showing no significant change after 10 months or even more.
