RESUMO

Increasing interest has been paid for hydrogen adsorption on atomically controlled nanoalloys due to their potential applications in catalytic processes and energy storage. In this work, we investigate the interaction of H2 with small-sized Ag n Cr (n = 1-12) using density functional theory calculations. It is found that the cluster structures are preserved during the adsorption of H2 either molecularly or dissociatively. Ag3Cr-H2, Ag6Cr-H2, and Ag9Cr-H2 clusters are identified to be relatively more stable from computed binding energies and second-order energy difference. The dissociation of adsorbed H2 on Ag2Cr, Ag3Cr, Ag6Cr, and Ag7Cr clusters is favored both thermodynamically and kinetically. The dissociative adsorption is unlikely to occur because of a considerable energy barrier before reaching the final state for Ag4Cr or due to energetic preferences for n = 1, 5, and 8-12 species. Comprehensive analysis shows that the geometric structure of clusters, the relative electronegativity, and the coordination number of the Cr impurity play a decisive role in determining the preferred adsorption configuration.

RESUMO

The on-chip growth and surface-functionalization have been recently regarded as promising techniques for large-scale fabrication of high performance nanowires gas sensors. Here we demonstrate a good NO2 gas-sensing performance of the tungsten oxide nanowires (TONWs) sensors realized by scalable on-chip fabrication and RuO2-functionalization. The gas response (Rg/Ra) of the RuO2-functionalized TONWs to 5 ppm of NO2 was 186.1 at 250 °C, which increased up to ∼18.6-fold compared with that of the bare TONWs. On the contrary, the responses of the bare and functionalized sensors to 10 ppm of NH3, 10 ppm of H2S and 10 ppm of CO gases were very low of about 1.5, indicating the good selectivity. In addition, the TONW sensors fabricated by the on-chip growth technique exhibited a good reversibility up to 7 cycles switching from air-to-gas with a response of 19.8 ± 0.033 (to 1 ppm of NO2), and this value was almost the same (about 19.5 ± 0.027) for 11 cycles after three months storage in laboratory condition. The response and selectivity enhancement of RuO2-functionalzied TONWs sensors was attributed to the variation of electron depletion layer due to the formation of RuO2/TONWs Schottky junctions and/or the promotion of more adsorption sites for NO2 gas molecule on the surface of TONWs, whereas the good reversibility was attributed to the formation of the stable monoclinic WO3 from the single crystal of monoclinic W18O49 after annealing at 600 °C.
