A gas sensing device based on a thermal wave resonator cavity is outlined. It is experimentally tested by monitoring the presence of several hydrocarbon vapors in air via the measurement of the thermal diffusivity. It is also shown that its time-dependent response may be used to follow the vapor diffusion. It is shown that its characteristic response time is linearly correlated to the thermal diffusivity value of the mixture. The steps toward the development of a practical sensing device are further discussed. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0034-6748(00)03107-5].
