Abstract MXenes are a rapidly emerging family of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides and nitrides that have attracted a lot of interest because of their existing profile, which include rich surface chemistry, hydrophilicity, and excellent electrical conductivity. Moreover, the uses of MXenes in sensor technologies are chemical, biological, and environmental sensing which provide more context for their versatility. The study explores the processes via which MXenes improve sensor performance, emphasizing their remarkable electrical characteristics, high surface area, and variable surface functions. The examined reports revealed that how MXenes can be successfully integrated into different types of sensor platforms, offering insights into their guiding principles and performance indicators. Importantly, the current manuscript discusses the present issues and potential directions for MXene research with the goal of directing future investigations toward maximizing their synthesis and broadening their range of applications in sophisticated sensing technologies. The synthesis approaches of MXenes are thoroughly examined in this paper, with a focus on the critical techniques such as selective etching and delamination processes that produce high-quality, functionalized MXene sheets.
