Dynamic Response and Swift Recovery of Filament Heater‐Integrated Low‐Power Transparent CNT Gas Sensor

Abstract Designing a transparent carbon nanotube (CNT) gas sensor for nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) detection at room temperature (RT), which is unaffected by humidity, is a critical challenge in various technologies. To solve this issue, a filament‐based memristor heater (MH) embedded low‐power CNT gas sensor is proposed to address humidity‐related issues, and dynamic response with a low power consumption of 6.15 µW and swift recovery of <1 ms/30.8 µW is successfully demonstrated, without any serious effects on humidity. This study reveals that the MH can effectively heat the surface of the active region due to the joule heating effect, which improves the absorption and desorption of the target gases and mitigates the influence on the humidity, which is in a response that is below 7.5%. As a result, it is believed that the proposed MH‐embedded transparent CNT gas sensors can address the humidity issues and slow response/recovery with ultralow‐power consumption and high‐accuracy gas sensing characteristics.
