Cover Story: There is a growing desire to monitor and control harmful substances that impact upon our quality of life. Thermal conductivity gas sensors offer several advantages that include high reproducibility, stability, low cost, low power consumption, simple construction, fast response time, long lifetime, and wide dynamic range and are thus rapidly gaining renewed interest. This timely review focuses on the state of the art in thermal conductivity sensors; it contains a general introduction, theory of operation, interface electronics, use in commercial applications, and recent research developments. In addition, both steady‐state and transient methods of operation are discussed with their relative advantages and disadvantages presented. Finally, some recent innovations in thermal conductivity gas sensing are explored. View this paper
