AB  - This paper presents an overview of semiconductor materials used in gas sensors, their technology, design, and application. Semiconductor materials include metal oxides, conducting polymers, carbon nanotubes, and 2D materials. Metal oxides are most often the first choice due to their ease of fabrication, low cost, high sensitivity, and stability. Some of their disadvantages are low selectivity and high operating temperature. Conducting polymers have the advantage of a low operating temperature and can detect many organic vapors. They are flexible but affected by humidity. Carbon nanotubes are chemically and mechanically stable and are sensitive towards NO and NH3, but need dopants or modifications to sense other gases. Graphene, transition metal chalcogenides, boron nitride, transition metal carbides/nitrides, metal organic frameworks, and metal oxide nanosheets as 2D materials represent gas-sensing materials of the future, especially in medical devices, such as breath sensing. This overview covers the most used semiconducting materials in gas sensing, their synthesis methods and morphology, especially oxide nanostructures, heterostructures, and 2D materials, as well as sensor technology and design, application in advance electronic circuits and systems, and research challenges from the perspective of emerging technologies.

AB  - Nanocrystalline iron manganite powder was synthesized using the sol-gel combustion process, with glycine as fuel. It was further calcined at 900 degrees C for 8 h, resulting in the formation of a loose cubic FeMnO3 powder with a small specific surface area, net-like structure and plate-like particles as confirmed by XRD, N-2 physisorption, FESEM and TEM analyses. The metal ion release was studied by ICP-OES and showed that less than 10 ppb of Fe or Mn ions were released by leaching in water, but 0.36 ppm Fe and 3.69 ppm Mn was found in LB (Luria-Bertani) bacterial medium. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was monitored in distilled water and bacterial medium and showed that FeMnO3 particles do not generate O-2 & x2d9;(-) ions with or without UV irradiation, but synthesize H2O2 and show an antioxidative effect. Besides the higher stability of FeMnO3 particles in aqueous solution they showed an inhibitory effect on Bacillus subtilis growth in LB medium even at low concentrations (0.01 mg ml(-1)), but not in BHI medium even at 1 mg ml(-1). This study points out that the mechanism of antibacterial action of engineered metal oxides needs continued investigation and specific experimental controls.

AB  - A porous MgFe2O4-Fe2O3-SnO2 bulk compound with varying SnO2 content was obtained by sintering an appropriate mixture of magnesium oxide, hematite and tin oxide nanopowders at 1000 and 1100 degrees C. The obtained structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze sample morphology, showing that the addition of SnO2 resulted in an inhomogeneous microstructure with smaller grain size especially at 1000 degrees C. Significant grain growth of hematite grains was noted at 1100 degrees C. The influence of relative humidity in the range 30-90% was monitored at room temperature (25 degrees C) in the frequency range 42 Hz-1 MHz. The highest reduction of impedance with humidity was noted at lower frequency. Addition of low amounts of SnO(2)and sintering at 1000 degrees C resulted in the highest sensitivity at 105 Hz of 0.391 M Omega/%RH in the RH30-90% range, while the compound with the highest amount of SnO2 showed the largest decrease in impedance with increase in relative humidity similar to 26 times. All samples showed low hysteresis (below 2%). Complex impedance data was analyzed using equivalent circuits reflecting the dominant influence of the grain boundary in the lower relative humidity range (30-60%) and both grain boundary and grain components in the higher relative humidity range (60-90%).
