Semiconductor CO sensor , particularly those designed for carbon monoxide (CO) detection, are a vital component in the field of gas sensing technology. These devices play a critical role in ensuring safety and maintaining air quality by actively detecting trace amounts of CO, a highly toxic yet odorless and colorless gas commonly produced by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels.
The operation principle of a semiconductor sensor relies on chemisorption—the chemical bonding of CO molecules to the surface of the metal oxide layer. As CO molecules interact with the surface, they either donate or accept electrons, altering the number of free charge carriers within the semiconductor. This change results in a measurable variation in the sensor’s resistance, which is then translated into a detectable signal.
Gas sensor Features
