Photo-acoustic gas sensor and method for the production and use thereof
First Claim
1. A photo-acoustic gas sensor, comprising a resonance body and an interferometer for identification of an oscillation of the resonance body by an optical detection of a location of at least one partial area of the resonance body, wherein the interferometer is arranged on exactly one substrate of a semiconductor material, and the resonance body is formed by at least one first cutout in the substrate which at least partly separates a first elongated element of the substrate from a portion of the substrate, wherein at least one of a device for generating light, a device for detecting light, a device for electronic signal processing, or a device for energy supply is integrated on the substrate of the semiconductor material.
