Physisorption-Mediated Charge Transfer in TiS Nanodiscs: A Room Temperature Sensor for Highly Sensitive and Reversible Carbon Dioxide Detection.

Real-time and high-performance monitoring of trace carbon dioxide (CO) has become a necessity due to its substantial impact on the global climate, human health, indoor occupancy, and crop productivity. Two-dimensional materials such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have gained significant interest in gas sensing applications owing to their intrinsically high surface-to-volume ratio. However, the research has been limited to prominent TMDs such as WS and MoS.

TiS Nanoribbons: A Novel Material for Ultra-Sensitive Photodetection across Extreme Temperature Ranges.

Photodetectors that can operate over a wide range of temperatures, from cryogenic to elevated temperatures, are crucial for a variety of modern scientific fields, including aerospace, high-energy science, and astro-particle science. In this study, we investigate the temperature-dependent photodetection properties of titanium trisulfide (TiS)- in order to develop high-performance photodetectors that can operate across a wide range of temperatures (77 K-543 K). We fabricate a solid-state photodetector using the dielectrophoresis technique, which demonstrates a quick response (response/recovery time ~0.

Polyethyleneimine-Starch Functionalization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Carbon Dioxide Sensing at Room Temperature.

There is an ever-growing interest in the detection of carbon dioxide (CO) due to health risks associated with CO emissions. Hence, there is a need for low-power and low-cost CO sensors for efficient monitoring and sensing of CO analyte molecules in the environment. This study reports on the synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) that are functionalized using polyethyleneimine and starch (PEI-starch) in order to fabricate a PEI-starch functionalized SWCNT sensor for reversible CO detection under ambient room conditions ( = 25 °C; RH = 53%).
