[nanoPost] Nanosensors

Company United Kingdom

Nanotechnology based sensors that integrate nanomaterials with silicon electronic devices.

These sensors will add value across to a number of consumer and industrial applications were the benefits of nanotechnology offer improved performance advantages, including lower power consumption, higher specificity and sensitivity:

- Environmental

- Medical

- Telecare

Application Example: Nanomaterial Gas Sensors

- The selectivity of the sensor will mainly be achieved by the appropriate choice of nanomaterials

- Stability, sensitivity and selectivity improved by functionalization

- More sensitive and faster than conventional Sensors

- Less power consumption

Markets

- Environmental Monitoring/Indoor Air Quality

- Medical/Breath Analyzer

- Industrial Leak Detection

- Defence/homeland security
