I am proposing a novel acoustic MEMS gas sensor with machine learning for the first time that can revolutionize the gas sensing field. Gas sensors targeting only a specific type of gas are developed due to the nature of the existing sensing technologies. Current gas sensors either rely on the detection of the electrical property changes upon the reaction of an active material with the gas or infrared (IR) transmission/absorption characteristics of the gases. I am proposing to couple the acoustic resonance in a cavity with a MEMS resonator and use the coupled resonance and damping as a gas sensor. Acoustic frequency and the damping are a function of the gas inside the cavity, and together can be used to detect any gas with machine learning. Since the frequency and damping change with multiple gases in the proposed approach, machine learning algorithms can extract the gas changes in a smart way. Proposed sensor solves the problems of the current gas sensors. It can be manufactured with standard MEMS fabrication flows, can be used with any gas, does not saturate, and has immediate response time. The sensors will be fabricated in the fully equipped clean room UNAM in Bilkent University. I will apply the sensor on human health by working with a pulmonologist to measure CO in human breath and indoor air quality. My supervisor Prof. Hilmi Volkan Demir will guide me throughout the project and help me to improve my technical and soft skills. I will also be able to improve my network and knowledge during my secondment in Fraunhofer EMFT, Germany. Collaborating with Analog Devices and Fraunhofer will be the key for further product technology development. In summary, this fellowship will establish me as a recognized European leader by demonstrating a proof of concept with interdisciplinary research (MEMS, machine learning, and medical application), by patenting and publishing my innovation, and by enabling the path for low cost universal gas sensor productization. ver más
