Abstract
The current development focuses on a gas sensing unit based on a modular design, which has the potential to be used in future devices for detecting harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the environment. It is based on ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) that is a highly sensitive and selective method for the detection of even low concentrations of substances in air. The core component of the developed module is a miniaturized chip device that integrates the ion filter and detector. These components form the IMS module, which can be easily integrated into new innovative systems.
