Abstract
Excellent acetone sensing property with high selectivity and long-term stability has been observed in single phase crystalline bismuth ferrite (BFO) nanoparticles. This phase pure BFO nanoparticles were synthesised via a simple sol-gel method and well characterized using various sophisticated instruments. BFO nanoparticles exhibit remarkable response (S = 1.8) towards 1 ppm of acetone at an operating temperature of 350 °C. The prepared sensor is extremely selective towards acetone among different gas analyte and also insensitive to moisture which can be attributed to a particular operating temperature (350 °C). Additionally, other important features of the sensor include high reproducibility and long-term stability for around 1 year. Displayed efficient sensing performance of these BFO nanoparticles-based sensors could be a potential candidate for different application e. g non-invasive monitoring of diabetes.
