Gas sensor comprising a resistance dependent organic-inorganic intercalated hybrid material and manufacturing method of said sensor

摘要

A gas sensor comprising a sensor element including an organic-inorganic hybrid material. The sensor element has layers of an inorganic compound such as an oxide, sulfide or halide of molybdenum and an organic conductive compound intercalated between the layers of the inorganic compound. The layers have thickness of less than 1 nm. The sensor can be used for detecting gases and vapors, especially polar volatile organic compounds. Preferably, the presence of a gas is detected by a change in resistance. Methods of producing the gas sensor are also provided. <IMAGE>
