DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The market for oxygen sensors is extremely large and continues to grow. Millions of medical patients in the U.S. alone require oxygen monitoring every year. Unfortunately, the current oxygen monitoring technology suffers from key drawbacks that limit the… More
This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project aims to develop a next-generation microsensor for dissolved oxygen (DO) in water. DO sensors are a primary tool for gauging the quality of both fresh water (rivers, lakes, reservoirs) and the oceans; for monitoring the various processes… More
This SBIR Phase II project aims to develop and commercialize a novel, next-generation photoluminescence (PL)-based, palm-size and miniaturizable dissolved oxygen (DO) sensor. DO sensors are primary monitors of water quality in industrial wastewater treatment. The new sensor is based on a pioneering… More
