The State University of New York at Stony Brook proposes to develop a novel self-powered wireless hybrid sensor that can accurately monitor both pressure and temperature simultaneously even in extreme harsh environments of nuclear accidents, such as up to 1400oC and 10,000 psi, without requiring external electricity. Tasks include ion beam irradiations and gamma ray irradiation with an intensive Co-60 source.
