Abstract

For developing highly sensitive, selective and stable gas sensing materials for the detection of volatile organic compounds, we report porous micro/nano-level structured Ag-LaFeO<sub>3</sub> nanoparticles which have been successfully synthesized using a lotus leaf as a bio-template <italic>via</italic> a sol–gel process.
