- Abstract
- n the vast majority of early breathing detection, nano-semiconductor gas sensors were widely used due to theirhigh sensing activity and a relatively simple manufacturing process. We developed a simple post-synthetic hy-drothermal treatment to fabricate a novel 3-dimensional (3D) structure gas micro-sensor, in which Au modifiednanoporous N doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs)/TiO2nanospheres were uniformly distributedthroughout the graphene foam frameworks. The obtained graphene network-based nanoporous TiO2gas micro-sensors with a high specific surface area provided a wealth of reaction sites for gas molecular diffusion andimprove the response to target gas. The nanocomposites exhibited excellent gas-sensing performance towardppb-level formaldehyde vapor by contrast gas detection, implying the application prospect in the aspect ofbreathing detection. More importantly, the graphene foam-based nanocomposites also presented outstandingselectivity and long-term stability. The excellent gas sensing properties were mainly attributed to the combi-nation of NGQDs with TiO2nanospheres, which indicated that the number of adsorbed oxygen and nano-het-erojunction played an important role in enhancing the formaldehyde (HCHO) sensing performance of nano-composites. Our work has updated a versatile synthesis strategy so that it can be programmed to design a broadseries of nanoporous functional composites according to high sensing performance and general adaptability.
