Low-Dimensional 2D Metal Oxides and their Integration into Conductometric Gas Sensors

Low-Dimensional 2D Metal Oxides and their Integration into Conductometric Gas Sensors provides a detailed description of the basic properties of 2D metal oxides, before moving to a comparison of different low-dimensional MOXs and a discussion of synthesis and characterization methods. It then proceeds to investigate the engineering and design, fundamental theories, mechanisms, properties, and analysis techniques of chemical gas sensors. Moreover, the volume describes materials and preparation methods for doping, decoration/functionalization, composite and heterostructure MOXs, which are useful in designing highly sensitive and selective sensing devices. To provide sufficient knowledge to the readers about the actual gas sensing mechanism, in-situ characterization methods are included. Lastly, future directions of 2D MOXs such as sensor arrays, electronic noses, research expansion, and market expansion are described.
