We demonstrate the applicability of a new kind of gas sensor based on Rydberg excitations. From a gas mixture the molecule in question is excited to a Rydberg state. By succeeding collisions with all other gas components this molecule becomes ionized and the emerging electrons can be measured as a current. In a proof of concept experiment a detection limit of 10 ppm in a background of He was demonstrated [1,2]. We show first results of the continous wave sensor prototype and first signals of Doppler-free laser spectroscopy on nitric oxide.
