<p>A gas sensitive device, for example a gas sensitive MISFET (FIGS. 1 to 3) has a gas-sensitive electrode (15) comprising a catalytically active metal (e.g. Pt or Pd) and a non-metallic material (e.g. SiO2) mixed with, or deposited at an exposed surface of, the metal to modify the catalytic activity of the metal. The electrode has an enhanced sensitivity to, and selectivity of, certain gases. The composite material is applicable to other gas-sensitive devices, e.g. an optical fibre gas sensor.</p> |
