Metal oxide gas sensors: development and characterization

In this review, a number of oxide materials deposited on optical fibers have been studied to determine the most optimum materials for the production of optical sensors intended for the detection of petroleum gases, namely, butane, ammonia, and ethanol. The sensory properties of oxides materials, suc...
