Metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors have demonstrated exceptional potential in detection due to their high sensitivity, rapid response time, and impressive selectivity for identifying various sorts of gases. However, selectively distinguishing CH4 from those CO H2 remains a significant challenge. This difficulty primarily stems the weakly reducing nature CH4, which results low adsorption makes it prone interference stronger gases surroundings. Herein, we synthesized In2O3-xCuO nanocomposites using hydrothermal method explore sensing properties toward CO, H2. Characterization tests confirmed successful preparation with different In:Cu molar ratios formation p-n heterojunction.

Metal oxide gas sensors (MOGS), crucial components in monitoring air quality and detecting hazardous gases, are well known for their poisoning effects when exposed to certain molecules, such as hydrogen sulfide. Surprisingly, our research reveals that high-temperature H2S treatment leads an enhancement effect rather than response decay. This study investigates the time-decaying enhancement, being attributed formation of metal sulfide sulfate on oxide's surface, enhancing electronic sensitization. Such is demonstrated various including CO, CH3CH2OH, CH4, HCHO, NH3. Additionally, impacts recovery time also observed. Surface compositional analysis conducted with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
