Comparative gas detection measurements have been performed on thin-film (d similar to 50-300 nm) and thick-film (d similar to 15-80 mum) SnO2 devices. We find that at normal sensor operation temperatures of the order of 400 degreesC thin-film devices mainly respond to oxidising gases such as O-3 and NO2, whereas thick-film ones preferably respond to reducing species like CO and CH4. A significant response towards oxidising species, however, was observed upon reducing the operation temperature of the thick-film devices to about 100 degreesC. We explain these effects in terms of a simple diffusion-reaction model taking into account the different architectures of thin- and thick-him gas sensing devices. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
