Nanotechnology-Enabled Sensors

Zusatztext

This book is written as a reference for researchers and engineers working in sensor and nanotechnology fields. Presented are existing and new sensing methods, as well as advances in nano-materials and devices for sensing applications. The book aims to provide an interdisciplinary approach, discussing chemical and physical nature of nano materials/structure, state of- the-art of active and passive electronic and optoelectronic nanomaterials and devices for sensing applications. The scope of the book includes: presentation of terminologies and basics of sensors and transducers, a thorough explanation of quantum theory related to nanostructures, growth, fabrication, and characterization of nano-structures such as nanowires, nanotubes, quantum dots, quantum wires, bio materials, and well-controlled nanostructures for sensing applications, as well as discussions of the synthesis and design of such materials in order to gain the understanding of novel functional properties which can be obtained by impurity doping and surface modification
