ISOTEC
“Integrated Organic Sensor and Optoelectronics Technologies” is lead by JOANNEUM RESEARCH and the University of Technology in Graz.
ISOTEC opens up new application areas in sensor and optoelectronic technologies - through the use of new types of organic materials and also by harnessing new structuring and production methods from the field of nanotechnology. The development of a flexible optical multi-analyte sensor ranks among ISOTEC’s key objectives. Such sensors can be employed for monitoring foodstuffs or indoor air, for medically-relevant rapid tests in emergency applications or for various applications in workplace safety. The sensors developed by the industrial partner AVL GmbH, then again, are utilized to detect high-temperature redox reactions. The optical connections required for this, such as micro-optics and waveguides with nanoimprint lithography and two-photon absorption, are also manufactured by ISOTEC. These waveguides are integrated into circuit boards by the AT&S industrial partner, enabling broadband data transmission.
