Abstract

This work presents a new approach to improve the selectivity and stability of metal oxide gas sensors by using active heated filter components. The “stacked die” microsystem consists of a micromachined metal oxide gas sensor, a preheater chip and a catalytically active layer on top of the preheater chip. The sensitivity, selectivity and stability of the device have been evaluated using several reactive test gases. Measurements with and without a catalytically active filter layer has been performed. A method for concentration prediction based on the ideal gas law using temperature cycling of the gas has been developed.
