The oxygen in the air plays a vital role in human survival. However, with the serious pollution of the air, toxic and harmful gases have become part of the air. People inhale these gases unconsciously and suffer from diseases of the respiratory system, nervous system, and blood system. To avoid this safety hazard, gas sensors are widely used to detect these toxic gases. At the same time, in order to detect diseases of the human body in time and seize the golden period of treatment, gas sensors are applied to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) exhaled by people. Low-dimensional nanomaterials with special advantages appear to be an ideal material for these gas sensors.
This Research Topic is aimed at low-dimensional nanomaterials for gas sensing applications, including novel low-dimensional gas-sensing materials, fabrication and feature study of nanomaterials, the correlation between biological signals and materials, wearable gas sensors, and so on. In addition, novel techniques for the preparation of low-dimensional nanomaterials, mechanistic studies of gas sensing, and modification of sensitive properties are all within the scope of research. Through this topic, we hope to stimulate discussions on the application of low-dimensional materials in monitoring human health using gas sensors. Original Research and Review articles are welcome.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
• One-dimensional materials (metal oxides, conductive polymers) for gas-sensing technology;
• Two-dimensional materials (MXene, black phosphorus) for gas sensors;
• Nanomaterials modification for sensing performance improvement, including doping, compounding, morphology control, and external activation;
• The relationship between preparation technology of nanomaterial and signal strength;
• Nanomaterials applied for detecting human disease-related VOCs;
• Nanomaterials for wearable (flexible) gas sensors;
• Factors and solutions for degrading sensing performance;
• Application of intelligent detection technology in gas sensing, for signal perception, processing, data verification and interpretation, signal transmission and conversion, etc.
