Chemical Sensing with Atomically Thin Platinum Templated by a 2D Insulator
Boosting the sensitivity of solid-state gas sensors by incorporating nanostructured materials as the active sensing element can be complicated by interfacial effects. Interfaces at nanoparticles, grains, or contacts may result in nonlinear current–voltage response, high electrical resistance, and ultimately, electric noise that limits the sensor read-out. This work reports the possibility to prepa
