Webinar: Enhancing gas sensors performance with advanced materials - the AccSens initiative

Join us for an insightful webinar hosted by VSPARTICLE which is on the latest advancements in gas sensing. In the webinar we will explore how we optimize nanoporous materials to enhance the performance of miniaturized chemiresistors and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based metal oxide semiconductors (MOS) gas sensors. These sensors are the leading solution for gas detection in air quality monitoring, healthcare, and consumer electronics.

In this webinar, we will discuss: 

-How to improve chemical sensors’ performance and selectivity to accurately detect gases like CO2, NO2, CO, NH3, Toluene, H2 and others by optimizing material parameters at the nanoscale.

-What deposition techniques (drop-casting, inkjet printing, spray-coating, and VSParticle’s spark ablation coupled to a dry printing system) are best for next-generation gas sensor fabrication.

-How the AccSens project leverages machine learning and VSParticle's single-step dry deposition technology, which avoids surfactants, chemicals, and binders to produce pure metallic and metal oxide nanoporous materials. 

-What strategies can overcome current limitations in commercial gas sensors and improve scalability.

We are honored to have on board two distinguished guest speakers for this webinar: 

Dr. Anton Köck – the head of the Sensor Solution Group at Materials Center Leoben, will discuss how optimizing chemical sensor devices by employing nanomaterials and a novel sensor technology based on simultaneous thermal and optical excitation. He will also explain how to integrate multiple devices into multi-sensor systems.

Dr. Leandro Sacco – an Application Specialist at VSPARTICLE, will compare different deposition techniques. He will analyze their ease of implementation at the wafer-level production and their potential to overcome the current limitations of the dominating commercial MOS gas sensors.

We’ll wrap up the session with a live Q&A, during which participants can ask their questions and interact with our guest speakers.
