However, its application in gas-sensing has been seldom reported.Here, we successfully synthesized assembled hierarchical Bi2 WO6 which consists of ultrathin nanosheets with crystalline-amorphous composite phase by a one-step hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray photoemission spectroscopy(XPS), field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM),and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) techniques were employed to characterize its composition, morphology, and microstructure. By taking advantage of its unique microstructure,phase composition, and large surface area, we show that the resulting Bi2 WO6 is capable of detecting ethanol gas with quick response(7 s) and recovery dynamic(14 s), extremely high sensitivity(Ra/Rg= 60.8@50 ppm ethanol) and selectivity. Additionally, it has excellent reproducibility and long-term stability(more than 50 d). The Bi2 WO6 outperform the existing Bi2 WO6-based and most of the other state-of-the-art sensing platforms. We not only provided one new member to the field of gas sensor,but also offered several strategies to reconstruct nanomaterials.展开更多
