  • Abstract
    A study of polyphosphazene-coated QCRs gas sensors using both mass and electrical loadings has been performed. In addition to the device series 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 with an additional parameter to improve selectivity
