摘要： A method for determining a nicotine content in a gas mixture. The method includes exposing a metal oxide-based sensor to the gas mixture, applying a temperature profile over time to the metal oxide so that the temperature of the metal oxide, proceeding from a predetermined first temperature level, is brought to a predetermined second temperature level under controlled first transition conditions, and the temperature is brought from the second temperature level to a third predetermined temperature level under controlled second transition conditions, ascertaining a transient specific electrical resistance of the metal oxide at at least one certain point in time during the application with the temperature profile, and determining the nicotine content based on the ascertained resistance. A processing unit and a computer program product for carrying out the method are also described.

摘要： A method for analyzing a gas includes measuring a concentration of a chemical species of the gas in a measuring space of a gas sensor. The gas sensor has a semiconductor substrate with an electrical circuit and a first thin-film ion conductor that separates a reference space for a reference gas from the measuring space for the gas. The first thin-film ion conductor has a reference electrode that faces the reference space and a measuring electrode that faces the measuring space. The reference electrode and the measuring electrode are connected to the electrical circuit. The measuring of the chemical species includes picking off an electrical voltage between the reference electrode and the measuring electrode of the gas sensor. A partial pressure of the chemical species in the gas is determined by processing the electrical voltage in the electrical circuit by using a stored processing specification.

摘要： A method for analyzing a gas mixture, in which a layer which is configured for the adsorption and/or absorption of components of the gas mixture is exposed to the gas mixture. The method includes cooling the layer from a first to a second temperature and heating the layer from the second to a third temperature. While the layer has the first, second, and third temperature, at least one electrical resistance value of the layer is measured. A method is described in which a first and second layer are exposed to the gas mixture. The first layer is cooled from a first to a second temperature and the second layer is cooled from a third to a fourth temperature. While the first layer has the first and second temperature and the second layer has the third and fourth temperature, at least one electrical resistance value of the respective layer is measured.

摘要： A method for analyzing a gas, where a sensitive metal oxide-containing layer is exposed to the gas, includes: reducing the temperature of the sensitive layer from a first temperature to a second temperature, the temperature of the sensitive layer being maintained essentially at the second temperature for a predetermined time period; increasing the temperature of the sensitive layer to a third temperature; measuring at least one electrical resistance value of the sensitive layer while the sensitive layer exhibits essentially the third temperature; and analyzing components of the gas based on the measured at least one electrical resistance value.

摘要： A device, a method, and a use thereof for detecting a concentration of a gas or of a gas component. The device as a gas sensor includes at least one sensor element including a gas-sensitive layer and a heating element for heating the gas-sensitive layer. The heating element is able to heat the sensitive layer to a desired temperature prior to the detection and/or is able to maintain it at a desired temperature during the detection. The heating element allows the gas-sensitive layer to be outgassed if needed, so as to allow absorption again. To heat the heating element, there is a first contacting to which a first voltage may be applied. Moreover, subsequent to the heating step, a second voltage may be applied to the sensor element or to the gas-sensitive layer for measured value detection with the aid of a second contacting. The two contactings at least partially have a shared actuation by being electrically connected to each other, the first contacting including a diode which essentially blocks current from flowing through the heating element when the second voltage, in particular the polarity of the second voltage, is applied.
