Abstract

jats:titleAbstract</jats:title>jats:pSelectivity for specific analytes and high‐temperature operation are key challenges for chemiresistive‐type gas sensors. Complementary hybrid materials, such as reduced graphene oxide (rGO) decorated with metal oxides enables realization of room‐temperature sensors with enhanced sensitivity. However, sensor training to identify target gases and accurate concentration measurement from gas mixtures still remain very challenging. This work proposes hybridization of rGO with CuCoOjats:italicjats:subx</jats:sub></jats:italic> binary metal oxide as a sensing material. Highly stable, room‐temperature NOjats:sub2</jats:sub> sensors with a 50 ppb of detection limit is demonstrated using inkjet printing. A framework is then developed for machine‐intelligent recognition with good visibility to identify specific gases and predict concentration under an interfering atmosphere from a single sensor. Using ten unique parameters extracted from the sensor response, the machine learning‐based classifier provides a decision boundary with 98.1% accuracy, and is able to correctly predict previously unseen NOjats:sub2</jats:sub> and humidity concentrations in an interfering environment. This approach enables implementation of an intelligent platform for printable, room‐temperature gas sensors in a mixed environment irrespective of ambient humidity.</jats:p>
