Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing a hydrogen sensor, the method comprising the steps of: disposing a thin film made of a transition metal or an alloy thereof on a surface of elastic substrate; applying a tensile force in a repetitive manner to the elastic substrate to form a nanocrack on the thin film disposed on the surface of the elastic substrate; and injecting hydrogen gas into the formed nanocrack and then removing the hydrogen gas to form a nanogap, wherein the tensile force in the step of forming a nanocrack is applied to an extent that the elastic substrate has a tensile strain of 25% to 100%.

Disclosed is an artificial intelligence apparatus for detecting a target gas, which includes a mixed gas measurement unit that measures a mixed gas collected in a plurality of domains through a sensor array to generate sensing data including heterogeneous domain measurement data measured from the mixed gas collected in a domain different from the target gas and target domain measurement data measured from the mixed gas collected from the same domain as the target gas, a heterogeneous intelligence model deep learning unit that receives the heterogeneous domain measurement data to train a heterogeneous intelligence model, a target intelligence model deep learning unit that receives the heterogeneous intelligence model and the target domain measurement data to train a target intelligence model, and a target gas detection unit that determines whether an environmental gas includes the target gas using the target intelligence model.

A gas concentration prediction method which includes: step 1 of exposing a gas to a specimen A which contains a liquid containing a compound, and to a specimen B which includes a liquid containing the compound in a concentration lower than the concentration of the compound in the specimen A, under the same conditions X, and step 2 of measuring a gas concentration a in the specimen A obtained in step 1, and a gas concentration b in the specimen B obtained in step 1, to obtain a coefficient ? by calculating the relationship between a and b based on the calculation equation ?=a/b.

The disclosed system and method improve analysis of chemical samples for measurement of trace volatile chemicals, such as by Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GCMS). The system can include two traps in series, the first of which removes most of the unwanted water vapor, while the second trap preconcentrates the sample using a series of capillary columns of increasing adsorption strength. The sample can be backflushed from the second trap directly to a chemical analyzer without splitting which can maximize sensitivity. The system improves elimination of water vapor and fixed gases from the sample prior to analysis, resulting in detection limits as low as 0.001 PPBb. The second trap allows faster release of the sample upon injection to the chemical analyzer without additional focusing, and can be cleaned up faster when exposed to high concentration samples relative to packed traps.

Despite the desire to measure the composition and concentration of the microparticles included in a gaseous body sample serving as the measurement target, there is a problem that measurement cannot be performed accurately due to the effect of substances other than the gaseous body sample adsorbing to a trapping body of the analyzing apparatus that traps the microparticles, for example. Therefore, provided is a microparticle composition analyzing apparatus that analyzes composition of microparticles contained in a gaseous body sample, comprising a gas analyzer and a control section that sequentially introduces into the gas analyzer a comparative gas and a sample gas caused by the microparticles generated by irradiating the gaseous body sample with a laser.

Various techniques are provided to implement a desorber of a sensor detector device that permits manual operation and is completely detachable from a main body of the sensor detector device. In one example, a device includes a desorber. The desorber includes an inlet comprising a fluid path configured to receive samples vaporized from sample media. The desorber also includes a cap configured to slide toward the inlet in response to a manual actuation of the cap performed by a user to transition the desorber from an open position to a closed position. The desorber further includes a heater configured to slide with the cap toward the inlet in response to the user actuation and vaporize the samples while the desorber is in the closed position.

The invention relates to a system and micro monitor apparatus, a space-, time-, and cost-efficient device to concentrate, identify, and quantify organic compounds in gas environments. The invention further relates to a method centered on gas chromatography for identifying and quantifying organic compounds in gas environments, using air as the carrier gas, without the need for a compressed pre-bottled purified carrier gas.

The present invention relates to a dynamic method for detecting actual odorous molecules of interest contained in the atmosphere or in direct proximity to the atmosphere present in an enclosure comprising the following steps: a) Sucking up a sample of the atmosphere by means of an extraction device; b) Making said sample circulate/pass throughout and/or over a collection device capable of adsorbing the odorous molecules, said device being in the form of a hollow tube open at each of its ends; and c) Having said device analyzed by a detection animal, and an extraction device for implementing the method.

A system and method to measure the amount of a gas dissolved in a fluid is described. The fluid is transferred to an equilibrator and pH is adjusted so that the equilibrium between the gas and its ions in the fluid is displaced towards more gas, so that the measurement may be carried out when there is proportionally more gas in the fluid.

A controller for controlling the operations of an autosampler, a sample push unit, and a make-up unit includes a pump stop timing setting unit for setting a first timing T1 of completion of dilution of a sample, and a subsequent second timing T2 of completion of trapping of a sample in the trap column, a dilution control unit for causing a solvent delivery pump for make-up of the make-up unit to operate, and for stopping operation of the solvent delivery pump for make-up at the first timing T1 set by the pump stop timing setting unit, and a sample push control unit for causing a solvent delivery pump for sample push of the sample push unit to operate, and for stopping operation of the solvent delivery pump for sample push at the second timing T2 set by the pump stop timing setting unit.
