Modeling and Simulation of a Miniaturized Gas Ionization Sensor: Detection of Greenhouse Gases

Gas ionization sensor (GIS), made of two parallel plates, works on measuring the breakdown voltage of gases that is unique for each gas. The gas breakdown inside the gas chamber occurs due to the ionization of gas molecules by accelerated electron impacts. The acceleration of electrons is very depen...
