Abstract:
It is described an integrated gas sensor device comprising a silicon substrate and an oxide layer on the silicon substrate, as well as a working electrode, a counter electrode and a reference electrode, on the oxide layer, the working electrode and the counter electrode having respective active area exposed to an environmental air through at least a plurality of first openings and a plurality of second openings in the oxide layer in correspondence of the working electrode and of the counter electrode, further comprising an electrolyte layer portion and a hydrogel layer portion on the electrolyte layer portion, the electrolyte and hydrogel layer portions having a same size, suitable to cover at least the working, counter and reference electrodes, the hydrogel layer portion acting as a “quasi solid state” water reservoir.
Abstract:
The present disclosure describes a process strategy for forming bottom gate/bottom contact organic TFTs in CMOS technology by using a hybrid deposition/patterning regime. To this end, gate electrodes, gate dielectric materials and drain and source electrodes are formed on the basis of lithography processes, while the organic semiconductor materials are provided as the last layers by using a spatially selective printing process.
