Highly crystalline 0–2 wt% V-doped SnO2 nanoparticles (5–20 nm) were produced by flame spray pyrolysis. Structural characterizations suggested that V atoms were substitutionally doped with mainly V5+ oxidation state. H2S sensing performances were greatly enhanced at a low optimal V-doping level of 0.1 wt%. The optimal sensor exhibited a high response of 2274 with a short response time of 2.0 s to 10 ppm of H2S at 350 °C. V-doped SnO2 sensors displayed high H2S selectivity against NO, NO2, SO2, H2, C2H5OH and CH4.
