Abstract
gas-detecting methods of 2D materials and then concentrates on MXene-based sensors, emphasising the benefits that MXenes provide in this context. The study also explains the prime factors involved in evaluating sensor performance, which include sensor response, sensitivity, selectivity, stability, charge transfer values, adsorption energy and response/recovery times. Subsequently, the review covers two main categories: pristine/intercalated MXenes and MXene-based hybrid materials. The review investigates the approaches for improving the sensing characteristics of pristine and intercalated MXenes by introducing MXene hybrids like MXene-metal oxide hybrids, MXene-transition metal dichalcogenides hybrid, MXene-other 2D materials hybrid, MXene-polymers and other hybrids and other MXene-derived materials. In summary, this review offers a thorough overview of current advancements and potential applications for room-temperature ammonia sensors based on 2D MXenes and their hybrids. In order to pave the way for future improvements in MXene-based gas-sensing technology for room temperature ammonia detection, the study concludes by outlining potential future scope and conclusions.
