Abstract
S, and CO). The induced symmetry breaking of the SnS monolayer under compressive strain leads to much higher surface activation towards reducing gases, which improves its adsorption capability and the ability of screening oxidizing gas molecules. The present work provides key information for novel designs of strain-sensitive dual-function sensors based on SnS.
