Description:

Nanoparticle films were produced by spin-coating a colloidal suspension of Sb-doped tin oxide onto a microhotplate.  The motivation of these experiments is to test the compatibility of spin-on nanoparticle sensing films with microhotplate sensor technology, to assess the sensitivity, reproducibility, and stability of the films, and to characterize the temperature programmed sensing (TPS) response in different gas environments.
