Surface acoustic wave (SAW) based sensors for applications to gaseous environments have been widely investigated since the last 1970s. More recently, the SAW-based sensors focus has shifted towards liquid-phase sensing applications: the SAW sensor contacts directly the solution to be tested and can be utilized for characterizing physical and chemical properties of liquids, as well as for biochemical sensor applications. The design of liquid phase sensors requires the selection of several parameters, such as the acoustic wave polarizations (i.e., elliptical, longitudinal and shear horizontal), the wave-guiding medium composition (i.e., homogeneous or non-homogeneous half-spaces, finite thickness plates or composite suspended membranes), the substrate material type and its crystallographic orientation. The paper provides an overview of different types of SAW sensors suitable for application to liquid environments, and intents to direct the attention of the designers to combinations of materials, waves nature and electrode structures that affect the sensor performances.

A surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor array was developed for sensing amino gas. Poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone (PNVP) composite film as a sensitive interface material was deposited onto a 128° YX-LiNbO 3 substrate by the spin coating technique. Moreover, we have developed an improved portable electronic noise based on a 2x2 non-continuously working oscillators equipped with coated SAW sensor array. This gas sensor array system consists of SAW sensors, polymers with different polarity of function groups, signal readout electronics with quick connector, miniature sensing chamber made by acrylic, and aluminum plates. The adsorption of amino gas by the sensitive coating material modulates the phase velocity of the acoustic wave due to the mass loading and acoustoelectric effect. Thus, the targeted amino gas can be evaluated by recording the frequency shift of the SAW device. The fast response time (49 s) and recovery time (64 s), and larger frequency response of 800 Hz were observed from the fabricated SAW sensor under 150 ppm concentration of amino gas. The detection response and large frequency shift have been improved under current generation of SAW sensing array system.
