Abstract
Herein we demonstrate that few-layers 2D-CrCl3 transition metal trihalides (TMTHs) MX3 (M= Ti, V, Cr, Mo, Fe, Ru and X = Cl, Br, I), exhibit unveiled capabilities as chemoresistive p-type sensors to humidity (10 - 80% RH @25 °C), NO2 (400 ppb – 1 ppm) and H2 (10 – 250 ppm) at 100 °C operating temperature (OT). Specifically, we investigated the humidity response mechanism unraveling the nature of the reversal of the resistance from an ionic (@25 °C OT) to an electronic conduction regime (@100 °C OT) in humid air conditions. All these findings suggest 2D-CrCl3 platforms as 2D novel interfaces for humidity and gas sensing applications.
