Original Kurzfassung:
Optical measurement approaches have proven to provide intrinsic selectivity and the sensitivity, required for the development of integrated gas sensors. In an ongoing project, we work towards a Si-photonics non-dispersive infrared gas sensor and are investigating the possibility of the incorporation of IR-plasmonic materials, which could allow an increase in sensitivities and reduce the size of such sensors. Here we present the basic concept and discuss in some detail first results concerning fabrication and characterization of the plasmonic properties.
