Microwave signature for gas sensing: 2005 to present

2015

Abstract We present here the development and the implementation of a technique of gas detection involving a microwave transduction method. The use of low-cost sensors based on microstrip or coplanar structures, adapted to the microwaves domain, allows the sensitive materials deposition under various forms. The purpose of the study is to assess the interest of microwave transduction for gas detection. The choice of the sensitive materials concerns materials widely used in the field of gas sensing: the metal oxides (SnO2 and TiO2) as well as molecular materials like cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc). In this article we shall apply to explain the principles of the microwave transduction before appr…
