The accurate measurement of ozone gas' concentration is crucial for_x000D_
environment and climate change studies. An ozonsode system is carried by a balloon to altitudes of about 35_x000D_
km through the atmosphere. The conventional ozonsode system uses an electrochemical technique to measure_x000D_
the concentration of ozone gas in a limited time. In this application, we address a crucial need for developing a_x000D_
microfluidic based, low-power consumption technique for reading out the ozone concentrations in a long_x000D_
period of time. The success in developing novel low-power consumption ozonesonde technology grooms the_x000D_
company to become a world leader driving the cutting edge of ozonesonde technology and enhances our_x000D_
knowledge in ozone science, which is crucial for Canada as a pioneered country in this science., program purpose french : Ozone is a key trace gas in atmosphere. The accurate measurement of ozone gas' concentration is crucial for_x000D_
