Perovskite-based sensor detects ammonia leaks at concentrations as low as 1 ppm

A team led by principal researcher Myungkwan Song of the Energy & Environment Materials Research Division at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) has developed an ultrasensitive ammonia gas sensor using an environmentally friendly, lead-free perovskite material.

Perovskite-based sensor detects ammonia leaks at concentrations as low as 1 ppm

Researchers from the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) have created an advanced ammonia gas sensor using lead-free perovskite material. Led by principal researcher Myungkwan Song, the team also uncovered the sensor's detection mechanism for the first time. The technology holds promise for improving safety in the emerging hydrogen economy, where ammonia can serve as an energy carrier.
