This book is a comprehensive introduction to nanoscale materials
for sensor applications, with a focus on connecting the fundamental
laws of physics and the chemistry of materials with device design.
Nanoscale sensors can be used for a wide variety of applications,
including the detection of gases, optical signals, and mechanical
strain, and can meet the need to detect and quantify the presence
of gaseous pollutants or other dangerous substances in the
environment. Gas sensors have found various applications in our
daily lives and in industry. Semiconductive oxides, including SnO2,
ZnO, Fe2O3, and In2O3, are promising candidates for gas sensor
applications. Carbon nanomaterials are becoming increasingly
available as off-the-shelf components, and this makes
nanotechnology more exciting and approachable than ever before.
Nano-wire based field- effect transistor biosensors have also
received much attention in recent years as a way to achieve
ultra-sensitive and label-free sensing of molecules of biological
interest. A diverse array of semiconductor-based nanostructures has
been synthesized for use as a photoelectrochemical sensor or
biosensor in the detection of low concentrations of analytes. A
novel acoustic sensor for structural health monitoring (SHM) that
utilizes lead zirconate titanate (PZT) nano- active fiber
composites (NAFCs) is described as well.
White organic light-emitting devices (WOLED's) are of considerable
interest owing to their attractive characteristics and potential
application to flat panel display and solid-state lighting source.
Currently WOLED's are the new increasing point in the area of
organic optoelectronics due to their high power efficiency. After a
brief overview of the WOLED's operating principles and basic
emitting structure, this book presents a review of recent progress
in WOLED's structure and materials.
