Optimized design of a SAW sensor array for chemical warfare agents simulants detection

Chemical warfare agent simulants detection is of great interest for security reasons. An electronic nose based on Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) sensors has been developed and sensor polymer coatings have been optimized. These allowed us to detect very low concentrations of certain simulants. A good cl...

Description
Summary:Chemical warfare agent simulants detection is of great interest for security reasons. An electronic nose based on Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) sensors has been developed and sensor polymer coatings have been optimized. These allowed us to detect very low concentrations of certain simulants. A good classification was achieved.
