This thesis presents the results of applying new strategies to understand the mechanism and explore the sensing performance of metal oxide (MOX) nanowire based gas sensors by testing individual nanowire gas sensors, running density functional theory (DFT) calculations, using new materials, applying ex-situ analysis and temperature-pulsed operation mode. These MOX nanowires include SnO2, CuO decorated SnO2, CuO and ZnO, electrically contacted either individually or in bundles. With SnO2-NH3 as a model system, DFT calculations were made to draw the pictures of surface-gas interactions, which were combined with empirical modeling of individual nanowire sensors to determine the sensing mechanism of this system. The surface reaction routine ...
