Abstract

Scientific effort and technological innovation are driving forces in addressing some of the most important challenges of our time, such as environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, and industrial safety. Among all the possible optical techniques, photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) has emerged as a powerful method, gaining prominence for its flexibility, versatility, and scalability. The pressing demand for greater detection sensitivity levels, easier miniaturization, and more efficient operations, is pushing the boundaries of traditional PAS, requiring innovative approaches, advanced materials, and quantum technologies. In this framework, moved by the beauty of scientific exploration and relentless pursuit of knowledge, this thesis describes all the work conducted during the three years of PhD (January 2022 - January 2025). It aims to explore the sensitivity limit of Micro Electro Mechanical (MEMS) based intra-cavity photoacoustic sensors and propose cutting-edge insights for a future quantum-enhanced approach.
