Electrical properties of Titanium dioxide Nanoparticle on Microelectrode: Gap Size Effect

摘要

TiO_2 nanoparticle based interdigitated microelectrode was fabricated by spin-coating and conventional photolithography approaches. Aluminum metal was deposited by thermal evaporator on silicon dioxide substrate. The effect of aluminum microelectrode gap sizes (4, 5 and 6 μm) on the electrical performance was investigated using picoammeter. Extremely small output current values of three different gap sizes were acquired. A characteristic electrical behavior was observed for the studied geometry. The configuration demonstrated a reduction in the output current from 2.28E-10,1.32E-9 and 2.38E-9 A with increasing gap size.
