“…With regard to prospects in energy storage applications, a 2D tin carbide nanosheet with a small tensile strain applied has been shown, using first-principles calculations, to be a suitable anode material for Li-ion batteries [13]. Moreover, Marcos-Viquez et al [14], based on DFT calculations, pointed out to the capability of SnC nanosheets to act as toxic gas sensors.…”

One-dimensional (nanotubes) and two-dimensional (nanosheets) germanium carbide (GeC) and tin carbide (SnC) structures have been predicted and studied only theoretically. Understanding their mechanical behaviour is crucial, considering forthcoming prospects, especially in batteries and fuel cells. Within this framework, the present study aims at the numerical evaluation of the elastic properties, surface Young’s and shear moduli and Poisson’s ratio, of GeC and SnC nanosheets and nanotubes, using a nanoscale continuum modelling approach. A robust methodology to assess the elastic constants of the GeC and SnC nanotubes without of the need for numerical simulation is proposed. The surface Young’s and shear moduli of the GeC and SnC nanotubes and nanosheets are compared with those of their three-dimensional counterparts, to take full advantage of 1D and 2D germanium carbide and tin carbide in novel devices. The obtained outcomes establish a solid basis for future explorations of the mechanical behaviour of 1D and 2D GeC and SnC nanostructures, where the scarcity of studies is evident.

“…One of the basic environmental threats is emission of nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ). NO 2 is a highly reactive and toxic gas [ 2 , 3 , 4 ]. It is generated through combustion of fossil fuels (heating, power generation, engines in vehicles, etc.)…”

“…It is generated through combustion of fossil fuels (heating, power generation, engines in vehicles, etc.) [ 4 ], hence, is a serious challenge for the energy and automotive industries [ 3 , 5 ]. At concentrations currently measured in cities of Europe and North America, it causes an increase in symptoms of bronchitis in asthmatic children and reduces lung function growth [ 6 , 7 ], while at concentrations of 150 ppm it could even cause death [ 7 ].…”

The sensitive detection of harmful gases, in particular nitrogen dioxide, is very important for our health and environment protection. Therefore, many papers on sensor materials used for NO2 detection have been published in recent years. Materials based on graphene and reduced graphene oxide deserve special attention, as they exhibit excellent sensor properties compared to the other materials. In this paper, we present the most recent advances in rGO hybrid materials developed for NO2 detection. We discuss their properties and, in particular, the mechanism of their interaction with NO2. We also present current problems occuring in this field.
