Palladium/tin oxide/reduced graphene oxide (Pd/SnO2/RGO) nanocomposites with Pd and SnO2 crystalline nanoparticles of high density and uniformity coated on RGO have been synthesized by a two-step reduction process. A novel hydrogen (H2) sensor based on Pd/SnO2/RGO nanocomposites was fabricated by placing Pd/SnO2/RGO nanocomposites onto a pair of gold electrodes. The Pd/SnO2/RGO nanocomposite-based sensor exhibited higher responses than Pd/RGO to H2 because the introduction of SnO2 nanoparticles enhances H2 adsorption and forms a P–N junction with RGO. The sensor shows a high response of 55% to 10 000 ppm H2, and a low detection limit, fast response, good selectivity and repeatability due to a combination effect of the Pd and SnO2 nanoparticles. The studies provide a novel strategy for great potential applications of graphene-based gas sensors.
