An infrared imaging device and method for making infrared detector(s) having at least one anode, at least one cathode with a substrate electrically connected to a plurality of doped carbon nanostructures; and bias circuitry for applying an electric field between the anode and the cathode such that when infrared photons are absorbed by the nanostructures the emitted field current is modulated. The detectors can be doped with cesium to lower the work function.

A method for sensing and analyzing data with surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices comprises the steps of: propagating a sampling signal at a fundamental frequency through a SAW device coated for selective adsorption; measuring at least one parameter of at least one higher order harmonic of the fundamental frequency sampling signal; exposing the coated SAW device to enable the selective adsorption; measuring the at least one parameter of the at least one higher order harmonic of the fundamental frequency sampling signal after the exposing step; comparing the measurements of the at least one parameter of the at least one higher order harmonic before and after the exposing step; and, deriving a result of the selective adsorption based upon the comparing step. The at least one parameter is harmonic power and harmonic frequency. The at least one higher order harmonic is one or more odd harmonics.
