MEMS gas sensors

MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) gas sensors are tiny devices that detect gases by using microscale mechanical structures integrated with electronic circuits. When the target gas interacts with the sensor’s sensing element, it causes a measurable change—such as a shift in electrical signals or physical movement—that is processed to identify and quantify the gas presence. These sensors are compact, fast, and low-power, making them ideal for applications like environmental monitoring, safety systems, and medical diagnostics, where precise and reliable gas detection is essential.
