Environmental gaseous pollutants, originating from factors such as industrial emissions, solid waste incineration, vehicle exhaust, and rapid population growth driven by urbanization and industrialization, continuously deteriorate natural environmental conditions. Consequently, the constant monitoring of these pollutants is essential to prevent the disruption of environmental dynamics. Extensive research and significant technological advances have led to the development of various gas sensors for applications in industries, indoor environments, aviation, and for detecting toxic domestic gases and vapors. In this context, diverse gas sensor materials such as metal-organic frameworks, graphene/graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, nanoparticles, and thin films have been extensively investigated. This review focuses on gas detection technology utilizing nano thin films derived from organic macrocyclic compounds, along with other emerging materials.
