In one example, a thermal conductivity gas sensor is disclosed. The sensor includes a sensing element and an amplification material coupled to the sensing element. The amplification material has a target gas dependent thermal diffusivity. The sensing element measures the thermal diffusivity of the amplification material to determine a target gas concentration.
