Summary: In this study, a p-type nickel oxide foam/n-type tin-doped indium oxide nanowires composite was fabricated for ethylene glycol gas sensing, which showed a unique response to 100 ppm ethylene glycol at a low temperature of 125 degrees C, along with fast response/recovery time. The excellent gas-sensitive performance of the composite can be attributed to the formation of p/n heterojunctions and the In and Sn doping of NiO during ITO growth. This fabrication method provides an effective strategy for building NiO-based heterostructures for high-performance gas sensors.

Summary: We present a methodology for localized growth of nanowires on micro-hotplates that allows independent adjustment of the device's resistance and gas response. Fabrication of nanowire-containing stripes with or without gaps enables nanowires to bridge current, and we demonstrate this approach with SnO2 nanowire-based chemoresistors. The results show the capability of tailoring nanowire stripe sizes and empty areas along the sensing material, resulting in up to 500 times response increase. The absence of nucleation seeds in the gap areas restricts current flow along the nanowire bridges, enhancing surface conduction controlled by nanowire-gas interaction.

Summary: The study found that indium tin oxide surfaces are covered with water-related and carbonaceous adsorbates, with carbon monoxide exacerbating this situation. Therefore, when using indium tin oxide for gas sensing applications, the operating temperature should be carefully selected to ensure sensitivity to target gases.

Summary: In this study, MXene/In2O3 nanocomposites were prepared by hydrothermal method and their gas-sensing performance was tested. The results showed that the composite had higher response to formaldehyde compared to pure In2O3 samples, with lower optimal working temperature and faster response speed. Therefore, the method of combining MXene with metal oxide semiconductors has great potential in low-temperature gas detection.

Summary: Core-double shell-structured ZnO@In2O3@ZnO microspheres were successfully synthesized by decorating In2O3 and ZnO on the surface of ZnO hollow microspheres, exhibiting excellent gas sensing properties with high response to gases like ethanol, especially at low concentrations. This superior gas sensing performance was attributed to its high specific surface area, abundant surface defects, and radial electronic modulation mechanism.

Summary: By using a single tin oxide nanowire as a gas sensor, the freshness of trout fish can be quickly and accurately assessed in a non-invasive manner, with the ability to measure the total bacterial count in the sample efficiently. The system can classify and estimate samples based on their freshness level and microbial concentration with high accuracy, making it a valuable tool for quality control.

Summary: In this study, cobalt-doped indium oxide nanomaterials were synthesized, resulting in larger specific surface area and improved sensing performance. The sensor with appropriate cobalt doping showed the best gas-sensing performance, with a high response to 2 ppm H2S (12.6), low detection limits (100 ppb), and excellent selectivity, 5.34 times higher than pure indium oxide at 300 degrees C. This work provides an implementable method for controlling the morphology of materials, facilitating the development of high-performance gas sensors.

Summary: Based on hafnium-added indium zinc oxide (Hf-IZO), a nitrogen dioxide (NO2) gas sensor was produced and showed high response and selectivity to NO2 gas, as well as long-term stability. The sensing performance of the 15 at% Hf-IZO sensor is linked to the concentration of oxygen vacancies generated by the hafnium doping.
