A novel and highly sensitive gas sensor for triethylamine (TEA) was proposed based on its cataluminescence (CTL) from the catalytic oxidation on the surface of nano-sized LaF3–CeO2. The LaF3–CeO2nanoparticles were successfully prepared by using a calcination method. The luminescence characteristics and the optimal conditions were investigated in detail. Under the optimal conditions, the present gas sensor exhibited a linear range of 0.9–54ppm, with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.9987 and a limit of detection (S/N=3) of 0.2ppm. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) for 36.5ppm triethylamine was 4.3% (n=6). There was no significant change in the catalytic activity of the sensor after 6 days, with a R.S.D. less than 5%. The proposed triethylamine sensor showed the advantages of good sensitivity and high selectivity.
