Summary: The structural, morphological and photoluminescent properties of magnesium oxide, gallium trioxide nanopowders, and their mixes obtained using pulsed laser reactive technology were studied. The emission peaks of MgO and Ga2O3 were located at around 430 nm and 440 nm respectively. Changing the gas environment had a significant impact on the spectra intensity and deformation, which could be utilized in gas sensors. The use of mixed metal oxides (MgO/Ga2O3) showed improved sensitivity, enhanced adsorption ability, extensive catalytic activity, and high thermodynamic stability, which is of great interest to gas sensing.

Summary: Nanocrystalline metal oxide thin films have higher sensitivity for toxic gas sensing at lower temperatures than their bulk counterparts, allowing for the miniaturization of sensors for wearable and portable field trials without sacrificing sensitivity, but with improved selectivity. The properties of nanomaterials, such as size, morphology, geometry, preparation methods, and composition, play a crucial role in the sensor's sensitivity, selectivity, response time, and stability. However, the commercialization of nanostructured materials for toxic gas sensing has been hindered by reliability issues. This review focuses on the advances in room temperature operating sensors and their toxic gas sensing mechanism based on the design of nanostructured metal oxide semiconductors and heterostructures, highlighting their high sensitivity, selectivity, and reliability.
