Nanostructured Cerium-Doped ZnO Thin Film: A Breath Sensor
Cerium-doped ZnO thin films sense acetone and ethanolamine, breath biomarkers for diabetes and liver disorders, with dopant concentration tuned separately for each target.

Spray-pyrolysis cerium oxide thin films and cerium-doped ZnO, studied as xylene and breath-biomarker (acetone, ethanolamine) sensors.

Precursor chemistry alone tunes spray-pyrolysis CeO2 sensing performance: the acetate-derived film forms nanosheets and gives the fastest, strongest room-temperature xylene response.
