In this study, from experiments and theoretical calculation, we reported that Ti3C2 MXene can be applied as sensors for NH3 detection at room temperature with high selectivity. MXene, a novel two-dimensional carbide, was prepared by etching off Al atoms Ti3AlC2. The as-prepared multilayer powders were delaminated to single layer intercalation ultrasonic dispersion. colloidal suspension of single-layer Ti3C2-MXene coated on the surface ceramic tubes construct gas detection. Thereafter, used...
