Micromem targets zeptofarad-level sensitivity in wearable gas sensor development with University of Toronto
  • Micromem reported ultra-high sensitivity results in its gas-phase sensor program under a research collaboration with Canada’s Department of National Defence and University of Toronto.
  • Work with University of Toronto achieved a design target to measure capacitance changes at zeptofarad level (10^-21 farads), aimed at detecting minute interactions between substances and sensor.
  • Development focus targets wearable, portable gas-sensing units, with ongoing refinement of sensor architecture, signal processing, and low-power system integration.
  • Program positions technology for real-time chemical detection use cases, with commercialization path tied to potential defense demand and strategic partnerships.
