In this work, a surface modification strategy by oxygen plasma irradiation was introduced for the first time to significantly improve the room temperature sensing performance of Ti3C2T[Formula: see text] MXene. Oxygen plasma irradiation induced TiO2 formation on the Ti3C2T[Formula: see text] surface, produced lattice distortion, increased the specific surface area, and provided mesoporous structures. The gas sensitivity performance characterization results show the gas response value of Ti3C2T[Formula: see text] irradiated for 0.5 h (Ti3C2T[Formula: see text]0.5P) was hundreds of times better than the pristine Ti3C2T[Formula: see text]alongside with its sufficient response time (280 s) and rapid recovery time (11 s). The excellent sensing performance is attributed to the formation of more reactive sites on the edge and basal planes of Ti3C2T[Formula: see text] and mesoporous structures which greatly improved the adsorption of ethanol. Additionally, the relatively low work function of TiO2 facilitates the formation of a Schottky junction for easy migration of charge carrier, the thereby shortening the sensing response time. This strategy offers a facile and controllable surface modification of other 2D materials, without damaging their structures.

We report the synthesis of room temperature (RT) stabilized γ–Bi2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) at the expense of metallic Bi NPs through annealing in an ambient atmosphere. RT stability of the metastable γ–Bi2O3 NPs is confirmed using synchrotron radiation powder X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. γ–Bi2O3 NPs exhibited a strong red-band emission peaking at ~701 nm, covering 81% integrated intensity of photoluminescence spectra. Our findings suggest that the RT stabilization and enhanced red-band emission of γ‒Bi2O3 is mediated by excess oxygen ion vacancies generated at the octahedral O(2) sites during the annealing process.
