Noble Gases Influence the Conductance of Cetineite-Type Nanoporous Semiconductors

Recognizing nobility: The photoconduction of cetineites, crystalline nanoporous oxoselenoantimonates, is suppressed by the adsorption of noble gases. The gas uptake decreases with increasing atomic radius of the noble gas, leading to a smaller change in resistance upon adsorption. Thus, cetineites c...

Summary:Recognizing nobility: The photoconduction of cetineites, crystalline nanoporous oxoselenoantimonates, is suppressed by the adsorption of noble gases. The gas uptake decreases with increasing atomic radius of the noble gas, leading to a smaller change in resistance upon adsorption. Thus, cetineites can be applied in noble‐gas detection.
