Abstract

To increase the sensitivity and the selectivity of the sensors to TMA gas, the composition ratio and the growth conditions of the ZnO films are studied. Annealing of the ZnO films in the various time ranges and temperatures in the oxygen is carried out to enhance the stbility of the electrical resistance. Pt/Ti heater deposited on backside of the substrates in used to control the operating temperature of th esensor. The ZnO thin film sensors doped to 4.0 wt% $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ 1.0wt.% TiO$_{2}$ and 0.2wt.% V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ exhibited a high sensitivity and an excellent selectivity for TMA gas. The sensors made with the thin films annealed at 700$^{\circ}$C for 60 minutes in the oxygen atmosphere had a good stability and linearity. The heater deposited in the ratio of 1 to 1 (Pt:Ti) had a good heating properties. The sensors fabricated using above conditions showed a good response to the actual gases of a mackerel at a step of deterioration after death.
