Recently, 2D materials, including TMMC GeS, GeSe, SnS, and SnSe monolayers, have been investigated as potential sensing materials for SO2. However, their transport properties, sensitivity, and recovery times after SO2 adsorption have not been reported. In this study, we found that the recovery times of pristine GeS, GeSe, SnS, and SnSe monolayers are too short, suggesting limited application potential. Interestingly, doping the SnSe monolayer with transition metals (Cr, Mn, or Fe) significantly improves the recovery time and enables the design of a reusable SO2 gas sensor with high sensitivity.
Recently, 2D materials have attracted great interest in the gas-sensing field, in which TMMC GeS, GeSe, SnS, and SnSe monolayers have been reported as promising SO2 sensing materials [Chem. Phys. Lett. 686 (2017) 83-87; Appl. Surf. Sci. 484 (2019) 33-38]. However, the transport properties, sensitivity, and recovery times of such structures related to the adsorption of SO2 molecule have not been published to date. In this work, we found that the recovery times of the pristine GeS, GeSe, SnS, and SnSe monolayers after SO2 adsorption are too short, indicating their low application possibility for SO2 sensing materials. Interestingly, the transition metals doping (Cr, Mn, or Fe) improves the recovery time of the SnSe monolayer in respect of SO2 molecules. Especially the calculated recovery time of the Fe-doped SnSe monolayer in respect of SO2 mo-lecules at 373 K is 27 s, which is suitable for reusable gas sensors. Moreover, we first designed an SO2 gas sensor based on the Fe-doped SnSe monolayer with two Au electrodes. The NEGF formalism-based cal-culations show its high sensitivity to an SO2 molecule. Our results suggest that the Fe-doped SnSe mono -layer is a promising 2D material for reusable SO2 gas sensors with high sensitivity. (c) 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
