Accurate detection of hazardous chemicals is critical to public and environmental health, as well as maintaining safe and efficient operations for many industrial processes. The integration of aerogels based on two-dimensional materials with a microheater-based platform enables fast, sensitive, and selective detection of environmental pollutants and flammable gasses well below their respective hazardous levels. Recent advances in nanomaterials for low-power gas sensing for health, environmental, and process monitoring using standard microfabrication techniques will be presented. Current efforts to integrate metal-organic frameworks (MOF), a highly tunable class of sensing material, with the chemical-sensitive field-effect transistor (CS-FET) platform for the development of highly selective sensors for toxic gasses will conclude the presentation.
