A micro CO2 gas sensor based on sensing of pH-sensitive hydrogel swelling by means of a pressure sensor [PDF]
In this paper a sensor is presented for the detection of carbon dioxide gas inside the stomach in order to diagnose gastrointestinal ischemia. The operational principle of the sensor is measuring the CO/sub 2/ induced pressure generation of a confined pH-

Design and characteristic analysis of hybrid OFD–LFM–PC waveforms in the MIMO radar
In this study, a new set of hybrid orthogonal frequency division–linear frequency modulation–phase coded (OFD–LFM–PC) waveforms are proposed to improve the detection performance of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radars.

A simple opto-fluidic switch detecting liquid filling in polymer-based microfluidic systems [PDF]
A novel detection scheme for detection of liquid levels and bubbles in microfluidic systems, using the principle of total internal reflection (TIR) is presented. A laser beam impinges on the side walls of a channel which are inclined at 45deg.

Thin film diffusion barrier formation in PDMS microcavities [PDF]
We describe a method to form glass like thin film barrier in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microcavities. The reactive fragments for the surface reaction were created from O2 and hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDS) in RF plasma environment.
