  1. CPAC Micro-Analytics Workshop Overview of Micro-analytical Technologies and Hurdles to Development and Commercialization

  2. H2scan Company Summary • Company Introduction • Hydrogen Sensing Technologies • Competitive Technology’s • Comparison Chart • Tomorrow’s Hydrogen Market

  3. Company Introduction • Based in Valencia (Los Angeles) California • Restart from DCH Sensor Division • Asset Purchase completed on Sept. 19th 2002 • Three product lines in Retail production

  4. H2 Sensing Technologies • H2scan Technology • Today’s • Tomorrow’s • Competitive Technologies • Comparison Chart

  5. H2scan Technology • Exclusive license 96-C00333 from Sandia National Labs for patents # 5,279,795 (May 7,1996) • Patent on two sensing technologies, a low concentration H-FET and a high concentration Chem-Resistor, giving a total concentration range from 50 ppm to 99.9%. Use of catalytic material Pd-Ni provides large range, minimal calibrations and hydrogen specificity.

  6. H2scan Technology • Pd readily catalyzes H2 (molecular) into 2 H (atomic). • The atomic hydrogen moves into the lattice of the Pd (alloy) film. • An equilibrium hydrogen density is reached proportional to gas concentration.

  7. H2scan Technology • Hydrogen absorbed into the Pd alloy lattice changes the bulk resistivity. • H2scan’s Hydrogen-Sensing Resistor (HRES) uses this property to measure Hydrogen from 0.5% to multiple atmospheres. i V

  8. H2scan Technology • Hydrogen absorbed into the Pd alloy lattice changes the charge density at a dielectric interface. • H2scan’s Hydrogen-Sensing Field-Effect Transistor (HFET) uses this property to measure Hydrogen from 50 ppm to 1%. + + + +
