Abstract
⺠CuO nanoflakes show room temperature ferromagnetism (RTFM) due to surface defects. ⺠Mn doping in CuO induces cluster formation on the surface, which destroys RTFM. ⺠CuO nanoflakes show more ethanol sensitivity compared to Mn-doped CuO nanoflakes. ⺠The surface has significant influence on both magnetism and ethanol sensitivity. ⺠Relation between magnetism and sensing mechanism is rarely reported in literature.
