It is imperative to seek for novel materials with pronounced gas sensing performance towards triethylamine for the sake of human health. Herein, we successfully fabricate an outstanding triethylamine sensor based on CdS/ZnO composite with 0D/2D structure, which are prepared by in-situ growth of CdS quantum dots on ultra-thin ZnO nanosheets. The ratios between the two ingredients are adjusted and their effect is evaluated. The optimal sample exhibits the lowest operating temperature of 200 °C, the highest response value of ~20 and the fastest response time of 2 s. Besides, it also has the virtues of durable stability, excellent selectivity and superior anti-interference ability. The mechanism behind the aforementioned intriguing performance is investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Kelvin probe and density function theory (DFT) simulation. All the results verify that the enhanced gas sensing properties are derived from splendid 0D/2D structure,n-nheterojunction and large specific surface area. Additionally, this study opens an avenue for designing sensors with 0D/2D structure.
