    摘要: The invention relates to a method for analyzing the composition of a gaseous stream comprising at least two gaseous components, one of which is methane; and to a sensor array and a gas sensor comprising such sensor array. The method comprises contacting the gaseous mixture with a sensor, wherein the sensor comprises a sensor array comprising at least two sensor elements, wherein each of said sensor elements comprises a transducer coated with a coating comprising a polymeric material having at least one property that is responsive to one or more of said gaseous components when exposed thereto, wherein said sensor elements differ at least in the composition of the coating, providing an energy input to said transducers that is converted to output signals based on said property, and obtaining said output signals.

    摘要: A device for the detection of analytes comprises a substrate (10) with nano-antennas (11,12). The nano-antennas (11,12) comprise an antenna material (11m, 12m) for forming resonant antenna structures which receive and resonantly interact with source light (L0) to form respective resonance peaks (R1,R2) over a resonant wavelength range (A1,A2) overlapping respective signature wavelength (λ1,λ2) of a target analyte (A). The resonant interaction causes a locally concentrated field (Ec) of the source light (L0) in the resonant wavelength range (Λ1,Λ2). The concentrated intensity (Ic) is localized around a respective target location (T1,T2) which is provided with a sorption material (11s, 12s) that sorbs the target analyte (A). This provides a locally increased analyte concentration (Ac) of the target analyte (A) coinciding with the locally concentrated field (Ec) of the source light (L0). Accordingly, the interaction of the source light (L0) with the target analyte (A) is enhanced.
