An original technology was developed, and ceramic targets were made from powders of Sn-Sb-O, Sn\u2013Sb-Dy\u2013O, and Sn\u2013Sb-Dy-Ag\u2013O systems synthesized by the sol\u2013gel method. Films of complex composition were obtained by RF magnetron sputtering of the corresponding targets, followed by technological annealing at various temperatures. The morphology of the films, the elemental and chemical composition, and the electrical and gas-sensitive properties were studied. Special attention was paid to the effect of the film composition on the stability of sensor parameters during long-term tests under the influence of CO. It was found that different combinations of concentrations of antimony, dysprosium, and silver had a significant effect on the size and distribution of nanocrystallites, the porosity, and the defects of films. The mechanisms of degradation under prolonged exposure to CO were examined. It was established that Pt\/Pd\/SnO2:0.5 at.% Sb film with optimal crystallite sizes and reduced porosity provided increased stability of carbon monoxide sensor parameters, and the response to the action of 100 ppm carbon monoxide was G1\/G0 = 2\u20132.5.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms252312818","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,28]],"date-time":"2024-11-28T09:21:23Z","timestamp":1732785683000},"page":"12818","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Advanced SnO2 Thin Films: Stability and Sensitivity in CO Detection"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Nadezhda K.","family":"Maksimova","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Optical Materials and Coatings, National Research Tomsk State University, Tomsk 634050, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tatiana D.","family":"Malinovskaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Optical Materials and Coatings, National Research Tomsk State University, Tomsk 634050, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Valentina V.","family":"Zhek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Optical Materials and Coatings, National Research Tomsk State University, Tomsk 634050, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nadezhda V.","family":"Sergeychenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Semiconductor Devices, National Research Tomsk State University, Tomsk 634050, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Evgeniy V.","family":"Chernikov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Metal Oxide Semiconductors, National Research Tomsk State University, Tomsk 634050, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8120-6638","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Denis V.","family":"Sokolov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics of Nanomaterials and Heterostructures, Omsk Scientific Centre of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Science, Omsk 644013, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5899-0436","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aleksandra V.","family":"Koroleva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Park, Saint Petersburg State University, Saint Petersburg 199034, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vitaly S.","family":"Sobolev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Park, Saint Petersburg State University, Saint Petersburg 199034, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3048-1821","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Petr M.","family":"Korusenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Solid-State Chemistry, Saint Petersburg State University, Saint Petersburg 199034, Russia"},{"name":"Department of Physics, Omsk State Technical University, Omsk 644050, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"709","DOI":"10.1016\/j.snb.2013.07.101","article-title":"Engineering Approaches for the Improvement of Conductometric Gas Sensor Parameters","volume":"188","author":"Korotcenkov","year":"2013","journal-title":"Sens.
