Abstract

Micro-thermoelectric hydrogen sensor (micro-THS) with the combination of the thermoelectric effect of Si_0.8Ge_0.2 thin film and the Pt-catalyzed exothermic reaction of hydrogen oxidation was prepared by microfabrication process. In the viewpoint of high sensitivity of micro-THS, the thermoelectric properties of the Si_0.8Ge_0.2 thin film could be improved by optimizing carrier concentration using helicon sputtering with an advantage of easy doping control, and sensitivity of the device with this thin film was investigated. As the result, the boron-doped Si _0.8Ge_0.2 thin film is considered to be the better choice ensuring the reliable monitoring of hydrogen concentration down to ppm level.
