This research proposes a substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity sensor to detect several chemicals using the microwave frequency range. The frequency response of the presented SIW sensor is switched by filling a very small quantity of chemical inside of the fluidic channel, which also causes a difference in the effective permittivity. The fluidic channel on this structure is either empty o...

Nowadays, the necessity of safeguarded environments is stronger than ever. The defence of public areas against terroristic threats requires intelligent security assistance systems that comprise state-of-the-art surveillance technology to localize persons with hazardous materials. The recent progress in the detection of hazardous materials by a new generation of chemical sensors leads to an incr...

Polymers provide chemical interfaces to electronic nose sensors for detection of volatile organic compounds. An electronic nose combines a properly selected set of sensors (array) with pattern recognition methods for generating information rich odor response patterns and extracting chemical identities. Each sensor in the array is functionalized by a different polymer for diversely selective sor...

LAPS are field-effect-based potentiometric sensors which are able to monitor analyte concentrations in a spatially resolved manner. Hence, a LAPS sensor system is a powerful device to record chemical imaging of the concentration of chemical species in an aqueous solution, chemical reactions, or the growth of cell colonies on the sensor surface, to record chemical images. In this work, multi-cha...
