Description

High-sensitivity hydrogen sensor used in air environment and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of sensors, in particular to a high-sensitivity hydrogen sensor used in an air environment and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The hydrogen has the advantages of high heat value, no pollution, convenient production and the like, is concerned by people as a novel energy source, and has wide application in the fields of industrial and agricultural production, medical treatment, scientific research and the like. However, because hydrogen is colorless and odorless, and flammable and explosive, the human perception system cannot sense the presence of hydrogen in the environment at all. Therefore, the hydrogen is safely used, and the final elbow stopper for large-scale popularization and use of hydrogen energy is realized. The reliable hydrogen sensing and alarming device is developed, effective safety guarantee is provided for the industries using hydrogen and involving hydrogen, and the method is the most effective way for solving the problem of the elbow pulling.
Materials that are responsive to hydrogen, such as metallic palladium and oxides of some metals, are not lacking in nature. Based on the hydrogen sensitive materials, people design different sensing structures, and develop various hydrogen sensing alarm devices through measurement means such as electricity, electrochemistry, catalytic combustion, optics and the like. Among them, the hydrogen sensor using a palladium thin film as a sensing device is most commonly used. For example, in the "a hydrogen sensor based on a carbon nanotube and palladium composite film" disclosed in the chinese patent literature, the publication number CN105510400B sequentially includes, from inside to outside, a P-type silicon substrate, a carbon nanotube, a metal palladium film, and two metal electrodes, where the carbon nanotube is arranged uniformly in a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, and the two metal electrodes are both bar-shaped and are symmetrically disposed on the upper surface of the metal palladium film. But such sensors have long response times and lower resolution; while the electrochemical sensor for measuring the electrochemical reaction signal of the hydrogen through the reference electrode can effectively shorten the response time, but can only maintain a very narrow measurement range; in addition, when part of metal oxide is used as hydrogen sensitive material, hydrogen reacts with oxygen element on the surface of the material to change the impedance property of the material, however, the reaction needs external heating; similarly, the hydrogen sensors measured by the catalytic combustion method also need to work in a high-temperature environment of 200-300 ℃, have a certain risk in the use process, and have the defect of poor selectivity; in addition, the hydrogen sensors of various other types only have response capability to pure hydrogen, and when the sensors are in an air environment, the interference of other gases in the air cannot be eliminated, and the hydrogen needs to be separated from the air in advance for subsequent quantitative measurement of the sensors.
In general, the existing hydrogen sensing technology often has the defects of long response time, narrow measurement range, poor selectivity, poor interference resistance and the like, and is difficult to meet the sensing alarm requirements of various hydrogen-using, hydrogen-related and hydrogen-monitoring occasions.

The invention also provides a preparation method of the hydrogen sensor, which comprises the following steps:
(1) Preparing an insulating substrate;
(2) Printing a conductive microelectrode on the surface of an insulating substrate;
(3) Depositing a palladium cluster film between the conductive microelectrodes;
(4) Placing the insulating substrate with the deposited palladium cluster film in a sealed cavity, respectively connecting the conductive microelectrode with one end of the wiring terminal, which is positioned in the sealed cavity, by using a wire, and connecting one end of the wiring terminal, which is positioned outside the sealed cavity, with an external circuit by using the wire;

Therefore, the resistance change of the palladium cluster film is monitored in real time through an electric signal measuring device in an external circuit, and the change of the hydrogen concentration in the air environment can be perceived.
