  • Abstract
    In this paper we report on the fabrication, testing and implementation of a planar silicon micromachined device that can be simultaneously operated as a low power microcalorimeter and a resistive gas sensor. A “dual-mode” sensor has therefore been designed to maximise application flexibility and minimise production costs
