“…In these systems, Pd NPs can be found deposited directly on silicon or silica substrates [1,6,7,8,33]; they can also be deposited on other oxide materials (ZnO, WO 3 , etc.) [49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65]; in some works they functionalize carbon materials (graphene, CNTs, etc) [9,39,46,66,67,68,69,70,71] or are even alloyed to other metals [55]. These various types of sensors are investigated here.…”
