PROJECT DETAILS
Name: FOGS - Fibre Optic Gas Sensing
Sponsor: Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic
Principal investigator: Z. Švitorka, MSc.
Co-principal investigator: Tomáš Martan, Ph.D.
From: 2011-01-01
To: 2015-12-31
Project is focused on development of a miniaturized integrated sensor system which will be applied for CO2 detection. The sensor is based on fibre optic and/or planar components built in fully portable system. The miniaturized sensor system will be controlled and data will be evaluated by a PC.

The Goal The goal of the part of the project solved in UFE (Institute of Photonic and Electronics AS CR) is developement of optical-chemical transducers working on absorption principles,finding suitable matrix for optical-chemical transducers and immobilization on transparent optical surface.
