Abstract: Nanocrystalline LaFeO3 films were synthesized via the sol-gel technique on silicon substrate. XPS spectra were taken after the nanocrystalline LaFeO3 films were treated in ethanol and nitrogen dioxide gases respectively. XPS analysis showed that when ethanol was adsorbed by LaFeO3 film, the surface adsorption of oxygen obviously decreased, Fe content decreased a little bit as well; on the other hand, when NO2 was adsorbed on its surface, the surface adsorbed oxygen increased apparently and Fe content increased as well; in the mean time, the transition trend from Fe3+to Fe4+ was found. All the observations above show that the mechanism of the gas sensitivity of nanocrystalline LaFeO3 films is closely related with the surface adsorption of oxygen and the changeable valance of iron. 
