Gas sensors based on wide band semiconductor metal oxides are playing an important role in the detection of toxic pollutants (CO, H2S, NOx, SO2, etc) and combustible gases (H2, CH4 and flammable organic vapors, etc.
Research and review articles, 11 in all, cover templated growth of metallic and semiconducting nanowires and nanowire networks, chemical gas sensors based on nanowires, magnetic properties of closely packed ferromagnetic nanowires, and progress in dimensional inorganic oxide nanowires.
The Hazardous Gas and Vapor Identifier (HGVI) uses ion mobility spectrometry, photoionization detection, and Taguchi gas sensors to look at unknown substances from various angles.
