A worldwide unique CMOS based chemical sensor device comprising an array of 8 microhotplates (µhps) for a total of 16 chemical sensors has been fabricated (Figure 1). Ultrathin (50 nm) SnO2 films have been heterogeneously integrated on the device by spray pyrolysis technology, photolithography and etching. Subsequently the SnO2 films are functionalized with metallic nanoparticles (NPs) such as Au, Pt, AuPd, or NiPt in order to improve sensitivity and selectivity. Figure 2 shows the strongly improved response of a NiPt-functionalized SnO2 sensor towards carbon monoxide (10–200 ppm, 25–75% rh): at an operation temperature of only 150 °C the sensor exhibits a response of more than 90%. Presently different metal oxide films (SnO2, ZnO, CuO) additionally functionalized with NPs are processed on the µhp-array chip. This is the approach of choice for realization of a fully CMOS integrated multi-gas sensor device.
