Abstract:TiO2 and TiO2 powders doped with different rare earth ions were prepared by sol-gel method, and their structures characterized by XRD. The results indicate that the prepared TiO2 powder has anatase structure, and rare earth ion doping can restrain the growth of TiO2 crystals. Moreover, its gas sensing properties towards formaldehyde, toluene and acetone gases were measured by a gas sensing instrument. The results show that the TiO2 doped with Ce (TiO2:Ce) exhibits better sensitivity and selectivity towards those gases, which may be attributed to the enhanced capability of adsorbed oxygen on the surface of Ce-doped TiO2. TEM analysis shows that the morphology of TiO2:Ce powder is particles with the diameters of 5~12 nm.
