Abstract

Visible-light-activated gas sensors require not only compact optical integration, but also sensing-layer fabrication compatible with wafer-level processing. In this work, we focus on the engineering of porous WO3-x sensing layers directly deposited onto LED microchip arrays via flame spray pyrolysis (FSP). Using a 460 nm sensor-on-LED platform as a model system, we investigate how FSP deposi-tion conditions define film thickness and surface chemistry. The resulting highly porous WO3-x films enable efficient gas access, visible-light interaction, and scalable wafer-level integration without post-treatment.
