Abstract
It is not a coincidence that very often the materials and sensitization methodologies used in chemical sensing are basically the same as the ones practiced in the field of catalysis. In both fields, a chemical reaction on the surface of the sensor or catalyst is the origin of the desired reaction products (in catalysis) or the electrical signals (in sensing). These fields were widely explored during the past few decades but both are currently experiencing a renaissance thanks to exciting new opportunities offered by nanotechnology.
