One-dimensional (1D) structural Cd-doped SnO2are prepared using shaddock peels as bio-templates via a facile hydrothermal method. The as-synthesized materials are characterized by different techniques, including XRD, FESEM, TEM, XPS and N2adsorption-desorption. Interestingly, unique 1D fiber-like structures are observed and composed of numerous small nanoparticles. Moreover, the result shows that 5 mol% Cd-doped SnO2nanofibers possesses a larger specific surface area of 38.850 m2/g. At the same time, the gas-sensing properties of sensors based on as-prepared SnO2nanofibers are also investigated. The 5 mol% Cd-doped SnO2nanofibers based sensor shows the highest response towards formaldehyde at a lower operating temperature of 160 °C. The excellent gas-sensing properties of sensor towards formaldehyde may attribute to the unique 1D fiber-like structure, large specific surface area and the additive of Cd, which can provide more active sites for the reaction between adsorbed oxygen ions and formaldehyde molecules on the surface of sensing materials. In addition, based on the above experimental results, the possible sensing mechanism of sensor towards formaldehyde is discussed in detail.
