Table 2 A comparison of the sensing performance of sensors based on the reported literature and our work (T: operating temperature, C: H2 concentration, Res/rec time: response/recovery time, LOD: limit of detection).

From: Ultralow detection limit and ultrafast response/recovery of the H2 gas sensor based on Pd-doped rGO/ZnO-SnO2 from hydrothermal synthesis
