The detection of hazardous gas is a topical issue for the protection of persons. Besides, it represents a challenge linked to the storage of renewable energy. Simulation tools developed within the Time and Frequency Department attached to the FEMTO-ST Institute together with technological facilities available at MIMENTO center have enabled the development of SAW sensors providing answers to these issues. These Love wave’sbased sensors properties have enabled the detection of carbon monoxide in the ppm range. Similarly, hydrogen concentrations of the percent order has been measured by mean of Rayleigh wave’s based sensors. The efforts to optimize electro-acoustic devices have led to achieve delay lines built on quartz with insertion losses o...
