Abstract
A study of polyphosphazene-coated QCRs gas sensors using both mass and electrical loadings has been performed. In addition to the device ser ies resonance frequency, the parallel resonant frequency was measured in an attempt to characterise the changes in the dielectric properties of the coating during the detection process. The result is a sensor w ith an additional parameter to improve selectivity.
