Development of a smart sensor, matrix type, with surface acoustic wave, intended for toxic gases detection, neiurotoxic or with general action. The detector will permit toxic gases detection at a level in air of ´ ppm and under ppm, and wil have a alarm threshold minimum lees one order of magnitude less under alarm concentration.
- specific objectives:
- the study of some ad/absorbent materials, chemical sensitive to the toxic agents, based on the utilization of the nanocompozite materials (with nanoparticles < 10 nm with high surface area);
- the characterization of the material response and the selection of the optimal ones for the whole range of chemical compounds which are going to be identified and environmental conditions;
- fabrication of the matrix surface acoustic wave sensor;
- fabrication of the integrated electronic system for the signals processing;
- elaboration of the identification and quantification algorithm , which processes the information got from each element of the sensor matrix; development of suitable software;
- modeling and simulation of the identification and quantization;
- demonstration of the sensor functionality;
- publications, scientific communications WEB site , CD;
- submision of a one or more invention patents (apparatus anad methods).
