In this study, the micro gas sensor for NOx gas was fabricated by using a MEMS technology and sol-gel process. The sensing electrode and micro heater were designed to be a co-planar typed structure in the Pt thin film layer. The fabricated micro platform had a low power consumption of 67 mW at 2.0 V of heater voltage and 300°C of operating temperature. Indium oxide as a sensing material for NOx gas was synthesized by a sol-gel process with indium isopropoxide. The particle size of synthesized In2O3 was identified as about 50 nm. The maximum gas sensitivity as relative resistance (Rs = Rgas / Rair) occurred at 300°C with the value of 8.0 at 1 ppm NO2 gas. The present study shows that a MEMS-based gas sensor is a potential candidate for the automobile AQS (air quality system) gas sensor with many advantages of small dimension, high sensitivity, short response time and low power consumption.

Semiconducting metal oxide (SMO) gas sensors were designed, fabricated, and characterized in terms of their sensing capability and the thermo-mechanical behavior of the micro-hotplate. The sensors demonstrate high sensitivity at low concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at a low power consumption of 10.5 mW. In addition, the sensors realize fast response and recovery times of 20 s and 2.3 min, respectively. To further improve the baseline stability and sensing response characteristics at low power consumption, a novel sensor is conceived of and proposed. Tantalum aluminum (TaAl) is used as a microheater, whereas Pt-doped SnO2 is used as a thin film sensing layer. Both layers were deposited on top of a porous silicon nitride membrane. In this paper, two designs are characterized by simulations and experimental measurements, and the results are comparatively reported. Simultaneously, the impact of a heat pulsing mode and rubber smartphone cases on the sensing performance of the gas sensor are highlighted.
