Interlink electronics phase II is to produce a prototype manufactured from commercially available substrates and components, that will lend themselves to a reel-to-reel printing process

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded a $398,622 Cooperative Agreement under its Science, Technology, Business and/or Education Outreach program (CFDA 11.620) to Interlink Electronics, Inc. The purpose of this Phase II project is to produce a prototype electrochemical gas sensor that can be manufactured using high-volume, roll-to-roll or lamination processes. The expected outcome is the development of advanced digital gas sensing modules that can be integrated into new wearable and embedded infrastructure products to enhance human safety, health, and wellbeing, particularly in applications such as air quality monitoring, alcohol monitoring, and medical diagnostics. The award period runs from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2025. There are no sub-recipients on this award.

Activities

Phase II activities will be geared towards producing a prototype electrochemical gas sensor that is produced only with technologies implementable in a high-volume manufacturing process which includes roll-to-roll, roll-to-sheet, or lamination processes.

Expected outcomes

Interlink electronics anticipates that its phase II project will lead to advanced volume manufacturing of digital gas sensing modules into new markets that will produce benefits for society in new innovative wearable and embedded-infrastructure products that increase human safety, health, and wellbeing.

Intended beneficiaries

Industries involved with air quality monitoring, alcohol monitoring, medical diagnostic monitoring, and other applications that improve the quality of life for world-wide populations.
