Job Description
Missions
Air quality monitoring is a major challenge, given the significant environmental impacts associated with transportation, industrial activities, and domestic activities. Current systems for detecting and identifying pollutants are generally cumbersome and very expensive. In this context, the development of autonomous, embedded multi-sensor systems offers a very promising alternative. Over the past few decades, we have seen significant development in “electronic noses” based on gas sensors integrated into CMOS technologies. The proposed internship project concerns air quality sensor systems for indoor applications. The project will focus on the study of detection materials for volatile organic compound (VOC) sensor applications. VOCs are mainly linked to the evaporation of organic solvents, which are very common in industry and in our everyday environment and can have very negative impacts on health. Controlling VOC concentrations in enclosed spaces is therefore of real interest to public health. The objective of this project is to develop innovative technological processes for the manufacture of a network of sensors for the detection of CO₂, COx, and NOx on CMOS for, among other things, the automotive market.
Activity
- Clean room technological processes (deposition, lithography, etching) for manufacturing sensor arrays on top of a CMOS chip
