Abstract
We disclose herein a method for heating a gas sensing material formulation on a microhotplate which comprises: a dielectric membrane formed on a semiconductor substrate comprising an etched portion; and the gas sensing material formulation being located on one side of the dielectric membrane. The method comprising: selectively heating the gas sensing material formulation using an infra-red (IR) heater located over the substrate, and controllably cooling the semiconductor substrate using a cooling baseplate provided under the substrate and using an insulating medium located between the substrate and the cooling base plate so that a gas sensing structure is formed on said one side of the dielectric membrane from the gas sensing material formulation.
