  • Abstract
    We propose a full optical method for gas sensing by few-layer MoS2 nanosheets obtained by liquid-phase epitaxy (LPE). Our samples are fully characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), photoluminescent (PL) spectroscopy, and Xray diffraction (XRD). Further characterization and evaluation of gas sensing application, had been done by implementing ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV/Vis). For CO2 gas which acts as a donor to our sample (based on the evaluation method that used in this work), we calculate the response in the visible region equal to 15% while in longer wavelengths (near-infrared) the response clearly decreased. Our experiments show that using 2D transitional metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials for Gas sensing applications may open a new horizon for using this kind of 2D material in various types of optical sensors
