REDFINCH – COMPACT, PORTABLE CHEMICAL SENSORS

Mid-infrared photonic integrated circuits (mid-IR PICs) are the subject of increasing interest due to the large amount of sensing applications in the 2-20 µm wavelength range. REDFINCH will use hybrid and monolithic integration of III-V diode and Interband Cascade/Quantum Cascade materials with silicon to create high performance cost effective sensors based on Photonic Integrated Circuits.

REDFINCH (https://www.redfinch.eu/) will realise three fully-integrated PIC-based chemical sensor demonstrators for:

1) Process gas analysis in refineries

2) Gas leak detection in petrochemical plants

3) Liquid sensor for protein analysis in the dairy industry.

REDFINCH is a consortium of 8 European research institutes and companies, undertaking cutting edge R&D into novel, high performance, cost effective chemical sensors, based on Mid-Infrared Photonic Integrated Circuits (MIR PICs).
