Abstract

Physics of thin films An essential subfield of solid-state physics is thin-film physics. The thickness of a thin film can be anything from tens of nanometers to one micron, and it can consist of a single or many layers of atoms of a certain substance. Prepare a solid substance into a thin film by depositing it onto a solid foundation (substrate) in very thin layers using physical or chemical processes, or electrochemical reactions. Research into the characteristics of NiO thin films informed the development of the gas detector in this study. It is dangerous for people's health and safety when combustible and poisonous gases like CO, CO2, CH4, NO2, etc. are present in the air. This calls for novel uses for gas sensors, such as tracking gases with potential environmental hazards, developing gas analyzers, sensors, and response/recovery times. Excellent selectivity, rapid response, low operating temperature, little energy consumption, and long-term stability. Since metal oxide semiconductors (MOSs) are so sensitive to even trace amounts of gas, modern methods rely on them for accurate gas detection.
