High Surface Area MoS2/Graphene Hybrid Aerogel for Ultrasensitive NO2 Detection
Summary (1 min read)
It is well known that the resonant tori of an integrable, classical Hamil-
- Tonian system break up under a small perturbation into new tori which wind around the remaining nonresonant tori.
- (Caustic counts are difficult in any case in more than two degrees of freedom.).

Q2. What are the future works in "High surface area mos2/graphene hybrid aerogel for ultrasensitive no2 detection" ?
The MoS 2 /GA aerogel leverages the properties of the two materials to result in a high performance hybrid material for ultrasensitive and fast NO 2 sensing and suggests the possibility of other 2D material combinations for improved sensing applications.
Q3. What is the advantage of the microheater platform?
Besides the low power consumption, the microheater platform has excellent stability in the temperature range of interest and a closed membrane confi guration to make sensing material deposition easier.
Q4. What is the significance of the hybrid aerogel?
Because the graphene aerogel is conformally coated with single and few-layer MoS 2 , the hybrid structure possesses high surface area (700 m 2 g −1 ), [ 33 ] an important characteristic for sensing.
Q5. What is the way to heat the sensor?
Heating the sensing material with a microfabricated heater can enhance the reversibility of the sensor and accelerate the response and recovery rates, while maintaining low power consumption.
Q6. What is the effect of the bonding between the MoS 2 and graphene?
The bonding between the MoS 2 and graphene results in strong electronic coupling and the excess sulfur creates defects that improve the sensitivity of the sensor.
Q7. What is the effect of graphene on the sensor?
The 2D structure of the MoS 2 sheets on graphene not only increases the contact area for effi cient charge transfer across the interface but also shortens the charge transport time and distance, thereby improving the device performance.
Q8. What is the purpose of the graphene aerogel?
The high-quality graphene aerogel serves as the scaffold, which provides the high specifi c surface area, porosity, and high electrical and thermal conductivity.
Q9. What is the description of the graphene hybrid aerogel?
Benefi ting from its large surface area, porous structure, and high electrical conductivity, this hybrid aerogel exhibits superior sensing performance for NO 2 detection.
Q10. What is the reason why the GA sensor has good selectivity against CO and H 2?
In addition, the extra S in the structure may provide improved selectivity due to the possibility for increased number of bridging S atoms at the edges of MoS 2 . [ 51 ]
Q11. What is the composition of the graphene scaffold?
The graphene scaffold is covered with single to few-layer MoS 2 sheets, which provide the sensitive and selective sensing performance.
Q12. What is the detection limit of the graphene scaffold?
The detection limit of the sensor is below 50 ppb NO 2 at both room temperature (≈0.1 mW power consumption) and 200 °C (≈4 mW power consumption).
Q13. What is the sensor response to NO 2?
The NO 2 desorption is enhanced at higher temperature, which speeds up the time to reach a balance between adsorption and desorption both during gas exposure and during recovery.
Q14. What is the benefi t of the graphene scaffold?
The analysis indicates that most of the graphene scaffold is coated on both sides with MoS 2, which is present in the form of one to threelayer sheets (mainly monolayer); thus, the benefi ts of the 2D material are preserved in this 3D structure.
Q15. How does the sensor respond to NO 2?
The sensor shows clear response to 50 ppb NO 2 with fast response and nearly complete recovery and a signal-to-noise ratio of about 11.
Q16. What is the difference between graphene and MoS 2?
For conductometric sensing purposes, the graphene scaffold allows for lower noise measurements than MoS 2 alone, since MoS 2 is much less conductive than graphene. [ 33 ] Furthermore, the thermal conductivity of graphene is much higher than MoS 2 (5000 vs 35 W m −1 K −1 for single layer), [ 42,43 ] thus the graphene scaffold can effi ciently and quickly distribute heat from the microheater platform to the MoS 2 sheets.
Q17. What is the name of the hybrid aerogel?
A hybrid aerogel with a graphene scaffold coated in single- to few-layer MoS 2 nanosheets leverages the complementary properties of the two materials.
Q18. What is the XPS spectra of the graphene scaffold?
the carbon peak (Figure 3 e) can be deconvoluted into two peaks, a large peak at 284.6 eV attributed to C C bonding environment associated with the graphene scaffold, and a smaller peak at 286.0 eV attributed to C O bonding which indicates that Mo O does not come from a MoO 3 phase, but rather from a Mo O C bonding environment at the interface between MoS 2 and graphene.
Q19. What is the pore size of the graphene aerogel?
SEM images of the as-synthesized MoS 2 /GA ( Figure 2 a,b) show that the hybrid aerogel has the form of continuous 3D assemblies with thin interconnected sheets.
Q20. What is the sensor resistance at room temperature?
Figure 4 c shows a typical gas sensor response curve at room temperature toward different NO 2 concentrations, from 50 ppb to 5 ppm, at a bias voltage of 0.5 V. Upon exposure to NO 2 , the sensor resistance exhibits a pronounced decrease.
Q21. What is the diffraction pattern of the graphene aerogel?
The selected-area electron diffraction (SAED) pattern is shown in Figure 2 f with several diffraction rings, which can be indexed to the planes of hexagonal-phase MoS 2 (M) and graphene (G) sheets.
Q22. What is the simplest way to obtain graphene?
[ 30–32 ] Graphene oxide sheets are cross-linked, dried using supercritical CO 2 , and annealed at high temperature to obtain the graphene aerogel (Figure 1 a).
