Edge-tailored graphene oxide nanosheet-based field effect transistors for fast and reversible electronic detection of sulfur dioxide

Abstract

Graphene oxide was tailored into GO nanosheets with periodic acid treatment. Interestingly, the latter have a superior sensing performance for the fast and reversible detection of SO(2) compared with the former at room temperature. Its sensing mechanism was proposed from the structural changes of the GO nanosheets during the sensing and recovering processes.
