Abstract
A new design for thick film gas sensors was investigated. The sensors were made by the low temperature cofiring ceramics (LTCC) technique wi th a platinum heater buried inside the multilayer structure. SnO2 or S nO2 with Pd as catalyst thick films were used as gas sensitive materia ls. The properties of the gas sensors were measured with methane and c arbon monoxide. The results of our study show that LTCC can be success fully applied in sensor technology as well as confirming the correctne ss of the sensor design. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
