    Abstract: A fabrication method of a silicon nanoneedle array with ultra-high aspect ratio includes the following steps: spin-coating two photoresist layers of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) A2 on a silicon substrate; subjecting the silicon substrate coated with the two photoresist layers of MMA and PMMA A2 to electron beam lithography to form a photoresist pattern on the silicon substrate; subjecting the silicon substrate on which the photoresist pattern is formed to electron beam evaporation (EBE) to deposit an Al film layer on the silicon substrate; subjecting the silicon substrate on which the Al film layer is deposited to stripping to obtain an Al film array deposited on the silicon substrate, which provides a mask for the subsequent inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching process; and subjecting the silicon substrate covered with the Al mask to ICP silicon etching to obtain a silicon nanoneedle array structure.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a flexible hydrogen sensor with ultra-high sensitivity and a wide range and a fabrication method therefor. The sensor includes a conductive electrode layer (4), a sensing layer and a flexible substrate layer (1) in sequence from top to bottom. The sensing layer includes a MOxfilm (2) and Pd nanoparticles (NPs) (3), and the Pd NPs (3) are covered on the MOx film (2). A traditional metal oxide type hydrogen sensor and a quantum conductance-based hydrogen sensor are combined on a flexible polymer substrate by means of an atomic layer deposition (ALD) technology and a cluster beam deposition (CBD) technology, so as to obtain a flexible hydrogen sensor with ultra-high sensitivity, a wide range and excellent selectivity and lower working temperature.
