Abstract Metal oxide semiconductors have been widely used in the eld of gas sensor study. Various researches are being done to improve the sensitivity of the sensing material for applications like breath analyzers. In this work, a theoretical investigation and analysis of the n- type metal oxide for Acetone gas detection are carried out. The rate of change of resistance of the sensing material with respect to the change in the concentration of the target gas is analyzed. Acetone being a reducing gas the resistance was found to decrease for n-type material. The simulations were done using COMSOL Multiphysics and results showed that the resistance of the sensing layer varies with the concentration of the target gas. Also, the performance analysis of sensors has been compared with the experimental results. Further, we have also derived a mathematical expression connecting the relationship between the concentration of gas and the rate of change of resistance. The resistance change is observed to be proportional to the target gas concentration. A signal conditioning circuit was also designed for providing a user-friendly interface for monitoring the gas concentration. The simulation of the signal conditioning circuit was done using Proteus Design Suite. This work will aid researchers to define and predict the behaviour of gas sensors.

Ultrahigh selectivity and response to sub-ppm-level of p-xylene was achieved using CoCr2O4–Cr2O3 spheres. The unique catalytic effect and nanoscale heterojunction of CoCr2O4 and Cr2O3 provide a strategy to design high performance volatile organic compounds sensors for monitoring air quality.
