Description
A novel experimental approach for studying the gas response mechanism of semiconducting gas sensor materials is demonstrated using the example of water adsorption on SnO2(101). In this approach, valence band photoemission as a chemical probe is combined with photocurrent induced surface charging as a basis for contactless sample conductivity measurement.
