  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present a miniaturized benzene pre-concentrator. The device is based on an adsorbent layer (Carbopack X) placed on an alumina substrate. Concentration factors of up to 300 has been obtained allowing a significant improvement of the usual detection margins of a gas sensor.
