Mani Teja Vijjapu, et al.,"Fully Integrated Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide NO2 Gas Detector." ACS Sensors 5 (4), 2020, 984. We report an amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO)-based toxic gas detection system. The microsystem contains an IGZO thin-film transistor (TFT) as a sensing element and exhibits remarkable selectivity and sensitivity to low concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO 2). In contrast to existing metal oxide-based gas sensors, which are active either at high temperature or with light activation, the developed IGZO TFT sensor is operable at room temperature and requires only
