Novel Concept of Gas Sensitivity Characterization of Materials Suited for Implementation in FET-Based Gas Sensors
Résumé
We propose a novel technique to investigate the gas sensitivity of materials for implementation in field-effect transistor-based gas sensors. Our technique is based on the measurement of the surface charge induced by gas species adsorption, using an electrometer. Platinum sensitivity to hydrogen diluted in synthetic air has been evaluated with the proposed charge measurement technique in the operation temperature range from 80 to 190 °C at constant H2 concentration of 4 % and for different concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 4 % at 130 °C.
