The sensor was built up on a flexible polyimide foil (thickness: 25 μm) that has been chosen due to its thermal stability and low thermal conductivity. The sensor set-up consists of two temperature-sensitive platinum thin-film resistances passivated by a layer of SU-8 photo resist and catalytically activated by manganese(IV) oxide. Instead of an active heating structure, the calorimetric sensor utilises the elevated temperature of the evaporated H2O2 aerosol. In an experimental test rig, the sensor has shown a sensitivity of 4.78 °C/(\%, v/v) in a H2O2 concentration range of 0\%, v/v to 8\%, v/v. Furthermore, the sensor possesses the same, unchanged sensor signal even at varied medium temperatures between 210 °C and 270 °C of the gas stream. At flow rates of the gas stream from 8 m3/h to 12 m3/h, the sensor has shown only a slightly reduced sensitivity at a low flow rate of 8 m3/h. The sensor characterisation demonstrates the suitability of the calorimetric gas sensor for monitoring the efficiency of industrial sterilisation processes.}, language = {en} } @article{KirchnerLiSpelthahnetal.2011, author = {Kirchner, Patrick and Li, Bin and Spelthahn, Heiko and Henkel, Hartmut and Schneider, Andreas and Friedrich, Peter and Kolstad, Jens and Keusgen, Michael and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Thin-film calorimetric H2O2 gas sensor for the validation of germicidal effectivity in aseptic filling processes}, series = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 154 (2011), H. 2}, journal = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 154 (2011), H. 2}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {1873-3077}, pages = {257 -- 263}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{KirchnerLiSpelthahnetal.2009, author = {Kirchner, Patrick and Li, B. and Spelthahn, H. and Henkel, H. and Schneider, A. and Kolstad, J. and Friedrich, P. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Realisierung eines miniaturisierten Gassensors in Chiptechnologie basierend auf einer D{\"u}nnschicht-Thermos{\"a}ule zur H2O2-Detektion in aseptischen Abf{\"u}llanlagen}, series = {9.

A first prototype has been built using a commercially available plane silicon diode detector. A cone-beam reconstruction provides the images using the Feldkamp algorithm. First measurements with this system have been performed on a mouse. It could be shown that the CT setup fulfils all demands for a high quality image of the skeleton of the mouse. It is also suited for soft tissue measurements.

Four different detector materials (selenium, cadmium zinc telluride, cesium iodide and gadolinium oxysulfide) and two X-ray spectra (a molybdenum and a tungsten source) have been considered. The spectra have also been modified by aluminum filters of varying thickness. The contrast between different tissue types (water, air, brain, bone and fat) has been simulated by using a suitable phantom. The results indicate the possibility to improve the image contrast in microCT by an optimized combination of the X-ray source and detector material.}, language = {en} }
