Abstract: A method and a sensor for detecting or measuring at least one specific component among a plurality of components present in a gaseous or liquid mixture by a sensor having at least one capturing cell with a high-electron mobility transistor including a source and a drain with a grid inserted between the source and the drain, a voltage being applied between the source and the drain, and a current intensity in the capturing cell being recorded. The voltage between the source and the drain is controlled, which varies the intensity of the current, the voltage being controlled according to a voltage model predetermined by experience in order to provide a profile with an intensity which is characteristic of said at least one specific component.

Abstract: A wireless sensor for detection or measurement of at least one specific component present in a gaseous or liquid mixture, the gas sensor including at least one sensor cell, having a high-electron-mobility transistor having a source and a drain with a gate intercalated between source and drain. The at least one sensor cell having a high-electron-mobility transistor is associated with at least one split-ring resonator with at least one respective slit and connected between, on the one hand, the drain and on the other hand, the gate or the source of the at least one sensor cell, the sensor detecting a change in the intensity or the frequency of resonance as a function of the presence and/or of the concentration of the at least one specific component in the gaseous or liquid mixture.
