Abstract

Abstract Detection of ethanol gas quickly and efficiently at room temperature is crucial for ensuring environmental, human as well as industrial safety. In this work, we have demonstrated a chemiresistive room temperature ethanol gas sensor based on vertically aligned tin sulfide (SnS) nanoplates. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis have revealed the formation of orthorhombic, vertically aligned SnS nanoplates with high specific surface area. The sensor has been fabricated by depositing the SnS powder sample on ITO sheets using electrophoretic deposition (EPD), followed by the deposition of silver (Ag) electrodes using the thermal evaporation technique. The sensor obtained has exhibited a response value (R g/R a) of 17.4–400 ppm ethanol gas concentration, a quick response, and a recovery time of 12.4 s and 20.2 s at room temperature. The sensor has demonstrated long-term stability of 15 min, impressive selectivity, and remarkable repeatability across three successive test cycles of ethanol gas at 400 ppm. Based on the experimental sensing results, a plausible mechanism has been proposed for the sensor. The sensing response of SnS-based sensor at room temperature expands its potential for innovative applications across industries, marking a significant advancement in sensing technology.
