WG1: Sensor Materials & Nanotechnologies
| |
WG1 efforts will be on Sensor materials and nanotechnology including advances and recent trends to develop and utilize sensors fabricated mainly by MOs polycrystalline films utilizing among other, two of the most intensively studied techniques, i.e. Aerosol Spray Pyrolysis (ASP) and DC magnetron sputtering. The influence of the grain size and the surface morphology from films obtained by the above different depositions techniques, achieving sensing responses of the order of a few parts per billion for gases such as ozone at room temperature, will be emphasized. Study of the sensitivity of MO films to additional harmful gases (NO2, H2 and vapors of acetone) will provide a guide for further material and device development either onto glass and Si or on flexible (PET/PEN substrates. Involving the successful application of flexible substrates may lead to simpler, faster and inexpensive fabrication techniques targeting novel roll-to-roll and printed processing applications with obvious advantages over conventional ceramic or silicon-based technologies. Sensor responses will be studied by applying conventional conductometric techniques or specific low to medium frequency Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices which have shown high sensitivity towards electrical perturbations caused by the gas interaction at their active surface. Other advanced transducers (MEMS, NEMS, cantilevers, optical fibers, Field Effect Transistor (FET), electrochemical devices, etc.) will be studied as well.
