Towards Continuous Monitoring of Volatile Organic Compounds in the Gastrointestinal Tract

Much like wearable devices today, ingestible devices have emerged as a promising platform for continuous health monitoring, and potentially even intervention. Recent research has demonstrated the feasibility of ingestible devices with a retention mechanism, enabling them to remain in the stomach for weeks. Equipping these devices with sensors...

Gas Sensor Based on Array of Multi-Layer Graphene Decorated with Metal/Metal Oxide Nanoparticles

Graphene as an allotrope of carbon is promising for the detection of gaseous molecules due to its extremely high surface-to-volume ratio. However, its low selectivity poses a major problem for practical applications. The work presented in this thesis addresses the selectivity problem by depositing metal/metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) on the...
