Work-Function-Type Gas Sensors

Sensing Layers in Work-Function-Type Gas Sensors [Pg.377]

Classical work-function-type gas sensors are specific devices based on the Kelvin method. The Kelvin method ( vibrating capacitor/condenser method, capacitive probe method ), using a so-called Kelvin probe (KP) or Kelvin oscillator, is an established tool for measuring the work function of a sample or, more precisely, the contact potential between the sample and a reference. [Pg.377]

A major advantage of this method is that it is a noncontact and nondestructive way of measuring. Additionally, it is not expected to influence the electrical or chemical structure of the material. The technique is very simple, but fast, accurate, and versatile it can, in principle, be used in many environments. However, experience has shown that for practical sensor applications Kelvin probes are not suitable due to the necessary instrumentation and the limits to miniaturization. Most probes are rather macroscopic with a reference electrode the size of a few millimeters or centimeters. In addition, this method of measurement is complicated in comparison with other methods used in gas sensing and requires specific conditions and equipment. As a result, these devices are not available on the sensor [Pg.377]

Other inorganic materials were also studied by KP. Studies on gas sensitivity are reported for carbonates, especially BaCOj, being sensitive to CO and NO even at ambient temperature (Ostrick et al. 1999, 2000a, 2003), TiN (Ostrick et al. 2000b) as ammonia sensitive layers, and LaFj as oxygen (Cho et al. 1991 Choi et al. 1993) and ozone (Doll et al. 1996) sensing layers. The sensitivity of barium carbonate to CO in work-function-type gas sensors is due to the formation of bicarbonate... [Pg.382]

Exploration to make FET type and oxygen concentration cell type gas sensors more flexible in operating temperature FET-based on silicon cannot function at temperatures higher than ca.l80°C, whereas the cell using zirconia cannot function at temperatures lower than ca. 550°C neither is able to work in the most important temperature range for gas sensing. Exploration for new semiconductors and new solid electrolytes is desired to eliminate these limitations. [Pg.33]
