| Kelvin Probe Based Gas Sensors Characterization System |
Kelvin probe based gas sensors characterization setup measures the change in work function of thick/thin films upon gas ambient modifications. Kelvin probe control along with mass flow controller, valves, power supplies and other hardware is made in-house at CEERI. The hardware is interfaced with PC and the complete system is controlled by LabVIEW program. System is capable to perform experiments at different humidity and temperatures.
Technical Specifications: Sample Size: < 8 mm X 8 mm
Sample Thickness: < 1 mm
Maximum Flow: 300 ml/min Measured Output Data Format: Excel/Origin
