摘要
Two-dimensional materials have gained considerable attention in chemical sensing owing to their naturally high surface-to-volume ratio. However, the poor response time and incomplete recovery at room temperature restrict their application in high-performance practical gas sensors. Herein, we demonstrate ultrafast detection and reversible MoS2 gas sensor at room temperature. The sensor's performance is investigated to NO2 at room temperature, under thermal and photo energy. Incomplete recovery and high response time of similar to 249 s of sensor are observed at room temperature. Thermal energy is enough to complete recovery, but it is at the expense of sensitivity. Further, under photo excitation, MoS2 exhibits an enhancement in sensitivity with ultrafast response time of similar to 29 s and excellent recovery to NO2 (100 ppm) at room temperature. This significant improvement in sensitivity (similar to 30%) and response time (similar to 88%) is attributed to the charge perturbation on the surface of the sensing layer in the context of NO2/MoS2 interaction under optical illumination. Moreover, the sensor shows reliable selectivity toward NO2 against various other gases. These unprecedented results reveal the potential of 2D MoS2 to develop a low power portable gas sensor.
