We present a room temperature Graphene Quantum Dots (GQDs) based optical gas sensor for carbon dioxide gas detection. GQDs were prepared by a hydrothermal method and deposited on a quartz substrate using a drop-casting technique. The size of synthesized GQDs is in the range of 10 to 20 nm. GQDs films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), photoluminescence (PL) and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. The gas sensing measurements were studied using optical absorbance changes of GQDs film upon exposure to different concentrations of CO2 gas. The as-prepared gas sensor showed a significant sensitivity with a partially reversible response to CO2 gas, indicating its great potential to pave a way toward a novel CO2 gas sensor.
