New pocket-sized sensor can detect a silent threat in the air
To overcome this, scientists from Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS), Bengaluru, an autonomous institute of Department of Science and Technology (DST), fabricated a sensor by combining two metal oxides -- nickel oxide (NiO) and neodymium nickelate (NdNiO3), through a simple synthesis process. While NiO acts as the receptor for the gas, NdNiO3 serves as the transducer that efficiently transmits the signal, enabling detection at concentrations as low as 320 ppb, far surpassing the sensitivity of many commercial sensors.
To demonstrate the capabilities of this material, the team led by Dr. S. Angappane developed a portable prototype that incorporates the sensor for real-time SO2 monitoring.
