Abstract
A surface acoustic wave chemical sensor consisting of two identical ZnOSiO2Si layered delay lines has been realized on silicon. Together with a dual automatic gain-controlled amplifier, a dual delay-line oscillator system is formed.
Preliminary results of the system when used as a sensor for NO2 are presented. One of the delay lines is covered with copper phthalocyanine as the chemical interface, grown by a physical vapour deposition technique.
The experimental performance has been compared with previous results obtained with a surface acoustic wave chemical sensor system based on quartz. Parameters such as sensitivity, selectivity, drift, response time and noise have been examined.
