Different characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier trans- form infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet-visible (UV- Vis), and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) were employed to examine the structural, morphological, optical, and thermal properties of the final product. Similarly, the comparative carbon dioxide (CO2)-sensing response of as-synthesized CeO2 nanoparticles by both routes was also reported. The CeO2 nanoparticles synthesized by solid state diffusion method exhibit good sensitivity (3.38 %) at room temperature, low operating temperature (398 K), fast response time (32 s), and recovery time (36 s) along with good stability.展开更多
