Abstract
Piezoelectric devices today play a relatively small role in chemical sensing, but there are indications that their use may expand greatly in the future. Current applications of piezoelectric transducers to chemical analysis and sensing fall into two categories: surface mass detection and strain indication. Examples of strain indicators include strain gauges, accelerometers, and photoacoustic detectors. Piezoelectric mass detectors have been used as humidity gauges, thin film monitors, and gas sensors. However, a great deal of research is being directed towards developing mass detectors into selective chemical sensors, and it is in this area where the potential utility of these devices is greatest.
