In this study, we propose Pt-modified InN (Pt-InN) as an adsorption and sensing material for typical SF 6 decomposition gases (SO 2 , SOF 2 , and SO 2 F 2 ). On the basis of density functional theory, the adsorption structure, energy, charge transfer, deformed charge density, the total density of states, the partial density of states, and recovery time were discussed and calculated in detail, and the internal mechanism of the entire adsorption process was clarified. Analysis results show that Pt doping can considerably improve the characteristic response of pure InN monolayers to SF 6 decomposition gases. The high adsorption energy indicates a chemical interaction between the Pt-InN monolayer and SO 2 , SOF 2 , and SO 2 F 2 molecules, making Pt-InN a potential candidate material for SF 6 decomposition gas sensors. This study also guides further research on InN as a gas sensor.
