Title:\nDesign of a Luminescence-Based Transcutaneous Carbon Dioxide Monito
 r\n\nAbstract:\nContinuous monitoring of arterial carbon dioxide is critic
 al for assessing respiratory function and detecting ventilation inefficien
 cies. Arterial blood gas analysis, the clinical gold standard, is invasive
  and limited to intermittent measurements in hospital settings. Transcutan
 eous carbon dioxide sensing offers a noninvasive alternative by measuring 
 carbon dioxide diffusing through the skin, which strongly correlates with 
 arterial carbon dioxide. However, conventional transcutaneous sensors requ
 ire bulky bedside monitors and heating elements, making them unsuitable fo
 r wearable applications. This work presents the first integrated circuit i
 mplementation of a ratiometric time-domain dual lifetime referencing techn
 ique using a direct current-to-digital converter architecture designed for
  energy-efficient wearables.\n\n\n\nImage\n  \n\n\n\nSpeaker:\nTuna Tufan\
 nPhD Candidate, ICAS Lab, ECE Department, WPI\n\nAbstract:\nTuna B. Tufan 
 received the B.Sc. degree in electrical and electronics engineering from M
 iddle East Technical University, Ankara, Türkiye, in 2020, and the M.Sc. 
 degree in electrical and computer engineering from Worcester Polytechnic I
 nstitute, Worcester, MA, USA, in 2022, where he is currently pursuing the 
 Ph.D. degree with the Integrated Circuits and Systems (ICAS) Lab. He inter
 ned with Analog Devices as a Mixed-Signal Design Engineer during the summe
 r of 2022. His Ph.D. research focuses on the analog and mixed-signal desig
 n for wearable, noninvasive sensors for monitoring respiratory functions.\
