Materials and assembly for sensors: Nano-structuring at interfaces

Abstract

As more and more demands are placed on sensors in terms of points of application, environment, ease of use, sensitivity and overall performance, availability of information, etc., new materials, configurations and technologies are required to deliver systems that can meet stringent and uncompromising application requirements. This presentation will examine the role of nanomaterials in sensing and focus on controlled their manipulation at the nano- and molecular levels to provide engineered interfaces that can meet current and future demands.
