| TFMT06 | Contemporary Sensor Systems, 4,5 ECTS credits. /Moderna sensorsystem/ |
||
Prel. scheduled
hours: 46 |
|||
|
Area of Education: Science Subject area: Physics |
|||
| Advancement level
(A-D): D
|
|||
| Aim: To provide an insight in the function and design of a modern measurement system, based on chemical sensors, including various aspects ranging from the sensor principle to the application. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) Basic courses in physics and electronics. Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Supplementary courses: TFMT03 Sensor Technology, TFYY38 Bioanalytical methods and electronic noses, NFYC75 Chemical Sensor Technologies |
|||
| Organisation: Lectures and laboratory work on the various principles of the instrument and on applications. A number of guest lecturers are invited to present special topics. Visits to a research laboratory and to a company, which develops sensor systems, are also included. The course is given in English if students from abroad attend. |
|||
| Course contents: A measurement system is studied in detail from sensor principle to application. The system is chosen from the current research at the department and to some extent from industry and may e. g. be the "electronic nose" and the "electronic tongue" or biosensor systems based on surface plasmon resonance or other optical principles. As an introduction a short and brief overview of measurement technology, with emphasis on odor measurements, is given. The measurement system is then studied with respect to physical sensor device principle, design of the system, read-out electronics, amplifiers, signal processing, linearization, filtering, data aquisition, noise, data presentation, sample handling, multisensing, applications. |
|||
| Course literature: Lecture notes, book chapters, articles, distributed during the course |
|||
| Examination: | |||
| Laboratory work Hand-in exercises and 70 % participation of the lectures Optional written assignment for higher grade |
1 p 2 p 0 p |
||
| Hand-in exercises give grade U,3,4. An extra report, a review of a number of chapters from a book or scientific papers, may increase the grade one step. | |||
