Abstract - This
paper presents a circuit to measure carbon monoxide concentration. Signals
from three sensors are combined using sigma-delta processing to compensate
for relative humidity and interfering gases. Appropriate circuit
techniques are used to reduce offset and flicker noise in MOS amplifiers. |

Abstract - This
paper illustrates a smart sensor system for carbon monoxide detection. An
innovative technological approach has been pursued to fabricate gas
sensors on silicon substrate, compatible with IC fabrication. A mixed
analog-digital electronic interface processes the outputs of three sensors
to compensate relative humidity and interfering gases. Sigma-delta signal
processing and low-frequency noise reduction techniques are used to
minimize silicon area and to meet the required performance in a standard
CMOS technology. |

of Sensing Properties of Piezoelectric Improvements for HSA. In Proceedings of
the 18th Chemical Sensor Symposium, April 3-5, 1994, Tohoku University,
Japan, Vol.10, Supplement A.
Abstract - Improvements of sensing properties of a piezoelectric
immunosensor for human serum albumin (HSA) were examined. The frequency
change (F : sensitivity) was observed when the HSA solution
was allowed to flow onto the quartz crystal sensor immobilized with anti-HSA
monoclonal antibody. The F was found to be further increased
up to about 3 times after the subsequent flow of the polyclonal antibody
solution, owing to the formation of a complex of HSA sandwiched with the
two types of antibody. The finally obtained F varied almost
linearly with the HSA concentration in the range of 0-20 ppm, with the
sensitivity of ca. 20 ppm/Hz. Moreover, it was found that the resonant
frequency returned back reversibly to the initial level on the treatment
with acidic buffer solution (pH 3.0), and then such measurements of HSA
could be repeated up to 30 times without significant changes in
sensitivity. These results assure enough sensitivity as well as good
reusability of the sensor in the liquid flow-type HSA assay system. |

Electrical Conductivity, Proceedings of the Symposium on Time Domain Reflectometry in Environmental,

Abstract::
A new 20-MHz frequency domain (FD) sensor for soil water content and bulk electrical conductivity was calibrated in a
wide range of soil materials and compared with Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR)
calibrations. For pure fine sand, the real part of the FD complex relative permittivity versus volumetric soil water content function was nearly identical to that of
TDR, slightly below the familiar Topp curve. For other soil materials, this function generally increased, not entirely proportional to
specific surface, whereas for TDR they all decreased. The greater complexity of processes occurring at the lower FD
frequencies is indicated by the value of complex relative permittivity approximately equal to 95 measured in nearly saturated
pure bentonite. The measured imaginary part of the complex permittivity assumed equal to bulk electrical conductivity
increased with soil type and water content, attaining a value of approximately 5 dS/m in saturated bentonite. The greater sensitivity and
differences between soils present a greater need for FD calibrations. When calibrated, the new type FD sensor appears
capable of measuring water content and conductivity with at least equal accuracy as TDR, while offering advantages. |

Lucklum, R.; Borngräber, R.;
Hauptmann, P., Acoustically Amplified Chemical QCM-Sensor with Frequency and Attenuation Output.
Abstract:
Viscoelastic properties of chemically sensitive coatings can amplify the mass sensitivity of quartz crystal microbalance
(QCM)-sensors. We developed a new sensor concept which allows the estimation of viscoelastic contributions to the
frequency shift of a QCM-sensor. It is based on the parallel measurement of the resonant frequency of the quartz crystal and
the electrical amplification necessary to drive the quartz crystal. From the latter value the motional resistance in the equivalent
circuit can be determined. The quotient between resistance change and frequency shift is a measure of acoustic amplification
due to the coating's viscoelasticity. This method requires constant material properties of the sensitive film during measurement.
We suggest further a multilayer arrangement, where acoustic amplification and chemical sensitivity are separated. This
arrangement can be applied for acoustically rigid sensitive film. |

Ishihara and Shukuji Asakura, A Possible Motion Sensor with
Frequency Output, In Proceedings of
the 18th Chemical Sensor Symposium, April 3-5, 1994, Tohoku University,
Japan, Vol.10, Supplement A.
Abstract - Electrochemical oscillations have often been observed in
iron immersed in the solution containing phosphoric acid and hydrogen
peroxide. This oscillation has been interpreted by the cross linkage
between electrochemical reactions and mass transport processes in the
vicinity of an electrode. Therefore, the oscillation frequency is expected
to reflect the flow rate around the electrode. A rod of carbon steel S50C
was mounted in rotating disc apparatus. The intersection of the rod
rotated concentrically. In the mixture of 0.5M phospheric acid and 1.5M
hydrogen peroxide the highly stable electrochemical oscillation appeared.
The amplitude of potential change was about 600mVp-p. The oscillating
frequency was a sensitive function of rotation rate in the range of 100
rpm to 2000. It is very possible to develop the motion sensors whose
output is frequency by using this phenomenon. |
