The effects of surface and quantum confinement on nano-LaFeO3 surface adsor
bed by the sensor gas are probed by vacuum adsorptive surface photovoltage
technique. The quantum confinement effect depends exponentially on the pres
sure of the sensor gas. There are two main ways of charge transfer transiti
on on the adsorbed nano-LaFeO3 surface. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Scie
