High selectivity, enhanced sensitivity, short response time, and long shelf-life are some of the key features sought in the
solid-state ceramic-based chemical sensors. As the sensing mechanism and catalytic activity are predominantly surface-dom-
inated, benign surface features in terms of small grain size, large surface area, high aspect ratio and, open and connected
