The sensor can be used to detect CO down to l ppm (the sensitivity is about 3), and the response time and recovery time are about 5 and 15 s, respectively. Excellent selectivity is also found based on our sensor. These results demonstrate a promising approach to fabricate high-performance CO sensors with high sensitivity and quick response.展开更多
