Oxide semiconductor gas sensors

TL;DR: In this paper, the three key requirements of sensor design are determined by considering each of these three key factors: selection of a base oxide with high mobility of conduction electrons and satisfactory stability (transducer function), selection of foreign receptor which enhances surface reactions or adsorption of target gas (receptor function), and fabrication of a highly porous, thin sensing body (utility factor).
