SubsidieMeestersMiniature Trace Gas Analyzers with FFP microcavities
The project aims to develop and commercialize hand-held gas analyzers using Fiber Fabry-Perot microcavity technology for efficient methane detection and emission measurements.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Fiber Fabry-Perot (FFP) microcavity technology developed in the ERC project EQUEMI enables hand-held gas analyzers based on cavity-enhanced laser spectroscopy. This technology combines small size and high performance, features that do not exist in any commercial instrument today.
Remote Sensing Capabilities
Furthermore, the FFP principle also enables fiber-coupled arrays of cost-effective, passive remote sensors. These sensors can be read out by one central unit using scalable fiber multiplexing technology developed for the telecom market.
Emission Measurement Advantages
Both features enable fast, easy, and cost-effective emission measurements of GHG and other trace gases in areas where they are not practically feasible today.
Microscopic Size Benefits
Finally, the microscopic size of FFP cavities means that extremely small gas samples (below one microliter cavity volume) can be analyzed. Additionally, high bandwidth can be achieved with low gas throughput.
Project Proposal
Here we propose to demonstrate the performance of such instruments by building a demonstrator for methane detection. We will also investigate market potential and prepare for commercialization with a team of founders that is already in place.
