Results
The expected quantifiable result is the fabrication of a carbon dioxide (CO2) sensor which will be obtained as follows:
- Resonators based on metamaterials will be manufactured using gold with a thickness of ca. 500 nm deposited on a high-resistivity silicon / silicon oxide (HRSi/SiO2) substrate.
- On the resonators based on metamaterials, functionalized carbon nanotubes (representing the sensitive layer for CO2 detection) will be deposited.
- The expected quantifiable impact is to obtain a gas sensor with high sensitivity using resonators based on metamaterials with CNTs, in applications suitable for monitoring the degree of pollution in the atmosphere.
