Template-free synthesis and gas sensing properties of hierarchical hollow ZnO microspheres

Abstract

Hierarchical hollow ZnO microspheres were prepared via a one-pot template-free hydrothermal synthesis. It's worth mentioning that the hollowness of these microspheres could be controlled by adjusting the zinc source concentration. Furthermore, these microspheres were integrated into a sensorial structure which exhibited fast response and recovery times and good selectivity to ethanol.
