Abstract

Graphene gas sensors have gained much scientific interest due to their high sensitivity, selectivity, and fast detection of various gases. This article summarizes the research progress of graphene gas sensors for detecting ammonia gas at room temperature. Firstly, the performance and development trends of the graphene/semiconductor Schottky diode sensor are discussed. Secondly, manufacturing methods and the latest developments in graphene field-effect transistor sensors are reviewed. Finally, the basic challenges and latest efforts of functional ammonia gas sensors are studied. The discussion delves into each sensor type's detection principles and performance indicators, including selectivity, stability, measurement range, response time, recovery time, and relative humidity. A comparative analysis is conducted to highlight the progress achieved in research, elucidating the advantages, disadvantages, and potential solutions associated with various sensors. As a result, the paper concludes by exploring the future development prospects of graphene-based ammonia sensors.
