Gas sensing spans various technologies. These include electrochemical, PID, and MOS sensors which each offer distinct advantages in terms of sensitivity, range, and application. Infrared (IR) sensors, for example, excel at detecting gases with specific absorption bands (i.e., CO2). Yet they often lead to greater system complexity. Conventional IR sensors use a prism or diffraction gratin... (read more)

Gas analysis plays a crucial role in various scientific fields, from environmental monitoring to industrial processes, to ensure the health and safety of personnel and their working space. However, to accurately measure and analyze gases, reliable detectors are essential. One detector commonly used in gas analysis is the thermopile detector, which converts thermal energy into electrical... (read more)
