Abstract

Effectively monitoring of hazardous gases has become increasingly important for ecological environment and human health. As an emerging component of two-dimensional materials, layered metal dichalcogenides are gaining significant attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties, thus catering well to the gas sensing application. Particularly, tin disulfide (SnS₂) has been widely examined recently owing to its low-cost, earth-abundant, and environmental friendliness features, which meet the requirements of advanced sensing platforms. Herein, the booming research advancements of SnS₂-based gas sensors have been presented. Firstly, the basic attributes of SnS₂ and its ability to detect various hazardous gases are introduced. Secondly, innovative approaches that have demonstrated the effectiveness of improving the room temperature sensing performance of SnS₂ are summarized. Finally, the major challenges and future opportunities of SnS₂ are also outlined. It is ultimately expected that this timely review could offer guidance for designing high-performance gas sensing materials and further push forward their potential applications.
