$SnO_2$ nanoparticles were synthesized by flame spray pyrolysis, which were directly deposited on Pt interdigitated substrates. Gas sensing performance was evaluated for various gases such as $H_2$, CO, $H_2S$, and $NH_3$, and it was compared with that of commercial $SnO_2$ nanopowder. The synthesis of $SnO_2$ nanoparticles was also conducted in various solvents. As a result, the primary particle size was changed with the solvent of precursor solution, and their $H_2$ sensing properties were significantly affected.
