DTU
DTU has established and developed a new mid-IR fibre manufacturing facility: one of the only such capabilities in the EU. This will be used to support research and industrial development in future mid-IR supercontinuum development and other mid-IR technology.

SKU has developed significant know-how and insight on the application of MIR SC for spectroscopy of gas mixtures. This ongoing research has applications in the TRIAGE topic of environmental sensing, but SKU has also explored related use cases, such as analysis of plasmas (of great interest for renewable energy research), monitoring of greenhouse gas emissions from waste-water treatment plants or human breath analysis for medical diagnostics.

The core business for Senseair is to be the world leader in affordable, reliable non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) gas sensors for a wide range of applications such as indoor air quality, personal safety, medical, environmental etc., for the benefit of a better life for everyone. One key component in most Senseair products, responsible for the company success, is a patented MPC boosting the performance of the gas sensors offered to the market. Thanks to this research, Senseair has, in addition to providing the project with the required MPC for the TRIAGE target system, also presented two very different MPC demonstrators to prepare for two future low-cost product platforms.

TRIAGE has been greatly beneficial for CSEM in progressing its expertise in several areas relating to gas sensing, integration and ML. Several advances will be used in further research and will contribute to other areas of CSEM activities. The wide-ranging nature of CSEM’s contributions are reflected in the scope of the exploitable results which it will take from the project.
1. Method for FFT calculation in FPGA which is quite generic and can be applied to many high frequency applications.
2. Detection method which can be applied for any lock-in measurement system
3. A calibration approach which will find application in any system with an FT spectrometer.
4. CSEM’s Digital Stack: a state-of-the-art unified framework and architecture that provides customers with cloud-based solutions regarding data management.

The TRIAGE project has provided a unique opportunity for NORBLIS to further develop its technology and bring it closer to commercialisation. The source delivered in TRIAGE had a supercontinuum spectrum covered from 2-9.5 µm. The development of new procedures in TRIAGE has already found its way into existing POLARIS-4 and the new POLARIS-5 products, and further research is in progress for exciting new products in the future based on TRIAGE developments.

TRIAGE has generated several key results on trace gas analysis at LiU: a low-cost trace gas electronic nose approach, novel hyperspectral techniques, and a drone-based trace gas assessment which are important for greenhouse gas detection, a core expertise of the team. LiU is a public university, and in the LiU context exploitation means use of the results (which are quality assured via peer-reviewed publications) to create increased knowledge, to support activities, or to generate future opportunities within or outside academia.

The work on the MBE growth technology within the TRIAGE project finally led to the introduction of several new III-V materials-based LWIR detector products which are already available on the VIGO website. Their performance is comparable to or exceeds the performance of mercury cadmium telluride (MCT) detectors, the main competing material. The developed epitaxy technology and heterostructure design opened a way towards large-area high-resistance MWIR and LWIR devices operating at thermoelectrically achievable temperatures or even without cooling.
