Abstract
Room temperature soft chemical deposition route has been utilized to grow thin films of ZnO on glass substrate. Annealing at 673 K removed zinc hydroxide phase and nanofibrous ZnO films with wurtzite crystal structure were obtained. Decrease in the room temperature electrical resistivity from 107 to 104 Ω cm was observed after annealing. The nanofibrous ZnO thin films were sensitive to the explosive liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and the maximum response of 17% at 698 K under the exposure of 6500 ppm of LPG was obtained.
