Abstract Iron oxide is a widely used sensitive material for gas sensor applications. They have fascinated much attention in the field of gas sensing and detecting under atmospheric conditions and at 200 °C temperature due to their low cost in production; simplicity and fast of their use; large number of detectable gases. Iron oxide gas sensors constitute investigated for hazardous gases used in various fields. The morphological structure (particle size, pore size, etc.), optical, magnetic and electrical properties of Ni:Fe2O3, Mg:Fe2O3 and Fe2O3 thin films which grown by Spray pyrolysis (SP) have been investigated. XRD, Raman and AFM techniques have been used for structural analysis. AFM measurements have been provided very useful information about surface topography. I-V (Van der Pauw) technique has been used for response of gas sensor. These devices offer a wide variety of advantages over traditional analytical instruments such as low cost, short response time, easy manufacturing, and small size.
