General information
Nowadays, global warming is a serious problem for maintaining a stable ecosystem of the Planet Earth, which is mainly facilitated by the unprecedented increase in the concentrations of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere. Thus, the rapid detection of greenhouse gases in the different attitudes of the atmosphere and the accurate measurement of their concentrations are definitely challenging. The existing sensors of these gases work at a rather high operating temperature and have a high detection limit and insufficient temporal stability. Replacing the metal oxide bulk structures traditionally used in such sensors with one- and two-dimensional nanosystems mainly solves these problems. Within the framework of the project, it is planned to synthesize one- and two-dimensional nanostructures and fabricate greenhouse gas sensors based on them. A signal processing circuit will be also designed for the fabricated sensors and it will be attached to a compact drone structure. The flying detector will enable the measurement of greenhouse gas concentrations at different altitudes in the atmosphere.
