In this work a thin film gas microsensor based on both a double polysilicon micro-hotplate (MHP) and a polysilicon floating gate MIS transistor (FG-MIS) is described. Sensing section is a squared polysilicon plate which contains a doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) thin film. The sensing section is heated by an U-shaped polysilicon stripe which is electrically isolated from the top and the bottom using oxide films. The micro-hotplate is both mechanically supported and thermally isolated using a deep cavity micromachined in the silicon substrate. The sensing film is electrically connected to the floating-gate transistor where the conductivity channel is modulated by the charged generated at the sensing film. The sensor structure was characterized for detecting carbon monoxide (CO) at 300 ºC. The hot area is thermally isolated using an arrangement of cavities micromachined in the silicon substrate. Finally a complete layout of the sensor system is presented in this paper.
