In this work, we studied the influence of cross-interference effects between VOCs and NO on the performance of SnO2and Pt-SnO2-based gas sensors. Sensing films were fabricated by screen printing. The results show that the response of the SnO2sensors to NO under air is higher than that of Pt-SnO2, but the response to VOCs is lower than that of Pt-SnO2. The Pt-SnO2sensor was significantly more responsive to VOCs in the NO background than in air. In the traditional single-component gas test, the pure SnO2sensor showed good selectivity to VOCs and NO at 300 °C and 150 °C, respectively. Loading noble metal Pt improved the sensitivity to VOCs at high temperature, but also significantly increased the interference to NO sensitivity at low temperature. The explanation for this phenomenon is that the noble metal Pt can catalyze the reaction between NO and VOCs to generate more O−, which further promotes the adsorption of VOCs. Therefore, selectivity cannot be simply determined by single-component gas testing alone. Mutual interference between mixed gases needs to be taken into account.

Li dendrites and electrolyte leakage are common causes of Li-ion battery failure. H2, generated by Li dendrites, and electrolyte vapors have been regarded as gas markers of the early safety warning of Li-ion batteries. SnO2-based gas sensors, widely used for a variety of applications, are promising for the early safety detection of Li-ion batteries, which are necessary and urgently required for the development of Li-ion battery systems. However, the traditional SnO2 sensor, with a single signal, cannot demonstrate intelligent multi-gas recognition. Here, a single dual-mode (direct and alternating current modes) SnO2 sensor demonstrates clear discrimination of electrolyte vapors and H2, released in different states of Li-ion batteries, together with principal component analysis (PCA) analysis. This work provides insight into the intelligent technology of single gas sensors.

To overcome obstacles such as low response and poor selectivity of pure ZnO and SnO2 gas sensors, the ZnO@SnO2 sensor was synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis. The samples were characterized by XRD, XPS, SEM, HRTEM, N2 adsorption–desorption and other techniques. The results show that ZnO@SnO2 forms an n–n-type heterostructure and presents a double-layer capsule with a size of 0.5–4 μm. The results show that compared with pure ZnO and SnO2, the ZnO@SnO2 sensor exhibits a higher response (138.9) to 50 ppm triethylamine (TEA) at 152°C, which is 19.56 times that of the pure ZnO sensor and 21.7 times that of the SnO2 sensor. It has a short response/recovery time (11/11 s), excellent selectivity and cycling stability. Compared with other volatile organic compounds or gases, it has higher selectivity for TEA detection.

A challenge for low-valence cation doping in SnO 2 materials is that the sharply elevated baseline resistance is detrimental to sensor stability and the subsequent signal acquisition. In contrast, Homovalent doping has little effect on resistance but the effective homovalent dopant is few. Herein, we find the non-metallic element Se is prone to form cationic Se Sn defects in SnO 2 , which can improve the sensitivity of the SnO 2 -based sensors with a moderate rise in baseline resistance. The homovalent Se doping make the species and ratio of adsorbed oxygen on Se-doped SnO 2 surface basically unchanged after doping. Further experiments and theoretical calculations confirm the sensitization mechanism of Se-doped SnO 2 can be attributed to the higher activity of adsorbed oxygen on its surface. Therefore, the sensor based on Se-doped SnO 2 can have sufficient sensing-reactions and charge transfer at a temperature close to the maximum value of the baseline resistance, which makes the sensor better to sensitize the target gases requiring high temperature for sensing-reactions. This noble metal-like activation behavior of Se dopant is derived from the easier breaking of Se-O bond compared to Sn-O bond during CO oxidation which provides a new basis for the selection of dopants from the perspective of bond energy.
