Abstract
Nitrogen group oxide is one of the major pollutants in the air, and its accurate and rapid detection is essential for environmental protection and human health. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop high-performance new line sensor for Nitrogen group oxide. Here, we investigate the potential of monolayer 2D MoSH materials as candidates for NO gas sensing using a combination of density functional theory and non-equilibrium functions to construct nanodevices based on MoSH monolayer, and theoretically study the adsorption behavior of MoSH monolayer to NO, NO2, and NH3 gas molecules. The results indicate that MoSH monolayer exhibit metallicity, and nanodevices based on 2D MoSH monolayer exhibit anisotropic transport properties and significant negative differential resistance effects(NDR). More interestingly, gas sensors based on MoSH monolayers exhibit typical chemical adsorption of NO, NO2, and NH3 gas molecules, and the anisotropic transport properties still maintain, but significant differences of sensitivity appear for these three gas molecules. Specifically, the MoSH based gas sensor has the highest sensitivity to NO, reaching 93.1 % and 76.3 % along the armchair and zigzag directions, respectively. These results show that 2D MoSH monolayer is an excellent gas-sensing material with excellent application prospects for NO gas detection.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
