Abstract
In this work, a variety of semiconducting oxides were prepared and principally characterized by means of spectroscopic techniques (absorbance FT-IR, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis-NIR) to shed light on the electronic properties and defects involved at the roots of gas sensing capabilities. The thick films were obtained by screen printing technology on which electrical characterization and gas sensing measurements were performed. From the cross analysis of the results, a description of the specific sensing mechanism for each material is proposed.
