Popis: In today’s digital world, the industries have adopted the automized machines that are remotely controlled. So in such environment various types of monitoring have become an essential part. One of them is gas sensing mechanisms that are implemented to monitor various types of harmful /toxic/flammable gases. As available in the literature, there are various methods available for the detection of such gases. In the present review, the authors are considering the Surface Acoustic Waves based gas sensors only. The present review paper discusses about various parameters that can be enhanced for an optimized sensitivity and the selectivity for a particular sensor. The present study also compares the bulk material sensing properties with sensing properties of thin films. The thin films are generally distinguished from bulk material due to their thicknesses that are in the range of several nanometers but much less than 700 nm after which a material attains bulk properties.
