Ultrathin-film gas detector

摘要

A device for detecting a gaseous species including (i) a silicon substrate having two major surfaces and comprising a dielectric window region (ii) a heater situated on the dielectric window region on one major surface; and (iii) a conductivity cell electrode thin metal transducing film assembly situated on the dielectric window region on the other major surface is disclosed. The thin transducing film contacts the conductivity cell electrode.
