We report on a high-performance NO2 sensor based on a one dimensional MoS2 nanowire (NW) network. The MoS2 NW network was synthesized using chemical transport reaction through controlled turbulent vapor flow. The crystal structure and surface morphology of MoS2 NWs were confirmed by X-ray diffractio...
