At the Laboratory for Gas Sensors we are working on a broad spectrum of methods for gas detection. On this basis we develop tailored gas sensors for integration into complex microsensor systems.

The main focus is on the development of low-cost and power-saving sensors suitable for integration into RFID tags for wireless readout. In close cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Physical Measurement Techniques IPM we work on following topics:
• microstructured gas sensors
• microstructured IR sources for MIR
• sensors for RFID
• compact optical gas sensor systems
• system integration
• low-cost gas chromatography
• colorimetric materials for gas sensing
