#IMBCNMTalks: Metal oxide based gas sensors: past and present strategies to improve their functionality towards air-quality gaseous markers
Presentation of the national project NEOGAS by Stella Vallejos (MESSI group).
Gas sensors play an important role in many application scenarios, including environmental protection, industry, public safety, or medical systems. Against a host of competing enabling technologies for gas sensing, metal oxide (MOX) based gas sensors are well-positioned, with great market opportunities due to their low cost, high sensitivity, relative simple architecture, and miniaturization potential. These devices have shown sensitivity to gases of interest in air-quality monitoring, although their performance is still a subject of improvement. This talk will show the advances in MOX based gas sensors and the strategies explored in our new project - NEOGAS - to improve their performance to greenhouse gases.
