Cover Story: The development of non-invasive diagnostics that employ chemoresistive gas sensors to detect disease biomarkers in human breath has been a hot research topic in materials science. This growing interest is largely due to the synergic effects between the sensor performance and semiconducting metal-oxide-sensing layer. Thus, the manufacturing of high-performance gas sensor devices is directly related to the surface engineering of the selected semiconducting metal-oxide-employing advanced synthesis methods. In this study, we report the acetone-biomarker-sensing performance of well-faceted h-MoO₃ microrods synthesized by an ultrafast microwave-assisted hydrothermal route. View this paper.

Here, we present a proof-of-concept experiment where phase engineering at the nanoscale of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) flakes (from semiconducting 2H phase to metallic 1T phase) can be achieved by thermal annealing of a TMDC/Au/mica sy...
