The unique properties of two dimensional (2D) materials make them promising candidates for chemical and biological sensing applications. However, most 2D nanomaterial sensors suffer very long recovery time due to slow molecular desorption at room temperature. Here, we report a highly sensitive molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) gas sensor NO2 NH3 detection with greatly enhanced rate. effects gate bias on performance have been systematically studied. It is found that the kinetics can be...
