The number and pace of these investigations later accelerated in response to increasing pressure placed on the environment and public health by industrial activities. Since 1970, several thousand articles have been written on the subject, and laboratories around the globe have introduced novel methodologies and devices to address needs associated with particular technological developments. Despite the rapid development of this important new technology, very little has been done to review and coordinate data related to sensor science and technology itself.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePhysics, Chemistry and Technology of Solid State Gas Sensor Devices\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the underlying principles of solid state sensor operation and reveals the rich fabric of interdisciplinary science that governs modern sensing devices. Beginning with some historical and scientific background, the text proceeds to a study of the interactions of gases with surfaces. Subsequent chapters present detailed information on the fabrication, performance, and application of a variety of sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTypes of sensor devices discussed include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eGas-sensitive solid state semiconductor sensors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePhotonic and photoacoustic gas sensors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFiber optic sensors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePiezoelectric quartz crystal microbalance sensors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSurface acoustic wave sensors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePyroelectric and thermal sensors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor analytical chemists using solid state sensors in environment-related analysis, and for electrical engineers working with solid state sensors, this book will expand and unify their understanding of these devices, both in theory and practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eInteractions of Gases with Surfaces: The H2 Case.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Gas-Sensitive Solid State Semiconductor Sensors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Photonic and Photoacoustic Gas Sensors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Fiber-Optic Sensors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Piezoelectric Quartz Crystal Microbalance Sensors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Surface Acoustic Wave Sensors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Pyroelectric and Thermal Sensors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Future Trends.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Appendix.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Chemistry [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Chemistry\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Chemistry%20%5BPN%5D%22\"\u003ePN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Interscience","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52293508759832,"sku":"9780471558859","price":155.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471558859.jpg?v=1781643291","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/physics-chemistry-and-technology-of-solid-state-gas-sensor-devices-hardback-9780471558859","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
