  • Multi-dimensional integrated detection and analysis system (MIDAS) based on microcantilvers
    Patent number: 8236569
    Abstract: The present invention is a multidimensional integrated detection and analysis system (MIDAS) for any gas or fluid that transfers or accepts electronic charge (including but not limited to CH4, CO2, CO, NOx, SOx, H2O, NH3, NHx). MIDAS allows for the development of a highly sensitive, selective, and expedient sensor platform capable of uniquely identifying adsorbed molecules based on simultaneous measurement of truly orthogonal responses based on work function (?), capacitance (C), and/or conductance (?) changes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 7, 2008
    Date of Patent: August 7, 2012
    Assignee: University of South Carolina
