| Description |
Acetone is known as the breath biomarker of diabetes. In this paper we have reported on a highly sensitive, stable cobalt chromite (CoCr2O4) thick film-based trace acetone sensor with quick response and recovery times promising for the detection of diabetes from exhaled breath. CoCr2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by a cost-effective and easy sol-gel method. The as prepared nanoparticles were well characterized by sophisticated characterization techniques, such as, XRD, FESEM. TEM, HRTEM, XPS, and BET. Further these nanoparticles were exploited to fabricate a Taguchi type chemoresistive sensor using a customized drop coater. The developed sensor was characterized by I-V measurement. The developed sensor exhibited high p-type response towards 1 ppm of acetone vapor (similar to 3.81 folds), and appreciable resolution between 1 ppm, 2 ppm (response = similar to 4.82 folds), and 5 ppm (response = similar to 6.64 folds) acetone vapor at 300 degrees C. Further, the sensor exhibited fast response and recovery times of similar to 1.65 s and similar to 62 s, respectively. Also, the response of the sensor to 1 ppm acetone vapor is appreciably higher than that of 0.2 ppm ethanol, 0.25 ppm ammonia vapor, and saturated moisture. Finally, the sensor is stable for at least 6 months and exhibits repeatable measurements.
