Purpose
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) type gas sensor is one of key components in MEMS technologies including Chemical MEMS and Bio-MEMS. MEMS MOS type gas sensor, in general, consists of MEMS structure with membrane for thermal isolation, micro heater for controlling operation temperature, insulator layer between micro heater and micro electrode, and micro electrode for measuring resistance change of gas sensing materials on micro electrode. It is possible to detect specific gas or measure the gas concentration by using highly sensitive and selective gas sensing materials. MEMS MOS type gas sensor are more cost-effective than conventional gas analysis tools and methods since expensive pre-concentrator, column, etc. and man-power are used less and in-situ monitoring is enabled.
