Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) has attracted a great attention in the fields of gas sensors, solid fuel cells, piezoelectric ceramics and ferroelectric ceramics because of its high oxygen conduction, good mechanical properties, excellent oxidative resistance and corrosion resistance. For the YSZ based nanofibers, the new half-coating cable structure is proposed, and the project is focus on fundament researches such as the content and structure designs, preparation methods, material characterization and performance measurement. We will develop the relationship between ionic radius/interface characteristics and gas sensing properties by studing the effect of ionic radius on catalytic activity and the effect of interface characteristics on the electrical properties such as electron/ionic transport properties, and explore effective approaches to magnify the working temperature and improve gas sensing properties, synchronously. The project can provide thoughtway and method for studing the special physical and chemical properties of low-dimensional materials. We hope to prepare new composite nano-materials which are of the broad working temperature, high sensitivity, good selectivity, and applied to micro-gas sensors. The research results provide theoretical and experimental fundaments for sensor technology based on gas materials.
