UV-Activated MoS2 Based Fast and Reversible NO2 Sensor at Room Temperature

Kumar, Rahul, Goel, Neeraj, Kumar, Mahesh·2017·ACS Sensors

Abstract

Two-dimensional materials have gained considerable attention in chemical sensing owing to their naturally high surface-to-volume ratio. However, the poor response time and incomplete recovery at room temperature restrict their application in high-performance practical gas sensors. Herein, we demonstrate ultrafast detection and reversible MoS 2 gas sensor at room temperature. The sensor’s performance is investigated to NO 2 at room temperature, under thermal and photo energy. Incomplete recovery and high response time of ∼249 s of sensor are observed at room temperature. Thermal energy is enough to complete recovery, but it is at the expense of sensitivity. Further, under photo excitation, MoS 2 exhibits an enhancement in sensitivity with ultrafast response time of ∼29 s and excellent recovery to NO 2 (100 ppm) at room temperature. This significant improvement in sensitivity (∼30%) and response time (∼88%) is attributed to the charge perturbation on the surface of the sensing layer in the context of NO 2 /MoS 2 interaction under optical illumination. Moreover, the sensor shows reliable selectivity toward NO 2 against various other gases. These unprecedented results reveal the potential of 2D MoS 2 to develop a low power portable gas sensor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
