SnO2/Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs) were synthesized by a hydrothermal method using grape fruit juice. The nanocomposites (NC) were characterized by means of XRD and Gas sensing properties. The sensor devices were fabricated using SnO2/CQDs NC as sensing materials. The effect of the CQDs content on the gas-sensing responses and the gas-sensing selectivity was investigated. In this work, the gas sensor developed is exposed to carbon monoxide polluting gas like at different temperatures to determine the optimum operating temperatures which allow obtaining the highest sensitivity for gas. Keywords: Green synthesis, Grape fruit, SnO2 nanoparticles, CQDs, Gas sensor.

Abstract ZnO quantum dots sensitized SnO2 porous nanowires were fabricated and designed for UV excitation gas sensor. The ZnO/SnO2 composite (SZQ1%) with the molar proportion of 1:100 exhibits excellent sensing properties to NO2 gas under UV irradiation at 40oC. The humidity stability of SZQ1% was also measured and discussed by DC reversed circuit and complex impedance curves. The gas sensing mechanism is well discussed and illustrated to the ZnO quantum dots sensitized and the increased photo-generated carriers under UV irradiation.

Methane detection is extremely difficult, especially at low temperatures, due to its high chemical stability. Here, WO3 nanosheets loaded with SnO2 nanoparticles with a particle size of about 2 nm were prepared by simple impregnation and subsequent calcination using SnO2 and WO3·H2O as precursors. The response of SnO2-loaded WO3 nanosheet composites to methane is about 1.4 times higher than that of pure WO3 at the low optimum operating temperature (90 °C). Satisfying repeatability and long-term stability are ensured. The dominant exposed (200) crystal plane of WO3 nanosheets has a good balance between easy oxygen chemisorption and high reactivity at the dangling bonds of W atoms, beneficial for gas-sensing properties. Moreover, the formation of a n–n type heterojunction at the SnO2-WO3 interface and additionally the increase of specific surface area and defect density via SnO2 loading enhance the response further. Therefore, the SnO2-WO3 composite is promising for the development of sensor devices to methane.
