Design of Microsensors for the Detection of Corrosion on Aircraft

Abstract

The goal of this project is to develop cost-effective, sensitive, flexible and adaptive Surface Acoustic Waves (SAW) devices that will provide for improved detection of corrosion on aircraft. To accomplish this goal, polymeric sensory materials (pristine and nanocomposites) were synthesized and optimized to provide for enhanced piezoelectric properties, improving sensor performance .SAW devices were designed and fabricated, integrating these novel materials on the sensor surface. TSU faculty as well as undergraduate and graduate students were involved in conducting research on this project to achieve the project goals.
