Organic and Inorganic Materials Based Sensors

A three-volume comprehensive overview of the development and applications of various novel potent molecular sensor frameworks

In Organic and Inorganic Materials Based Sensors (3 Volume Set), a team of distinguished researchers delivers an interdisciplinary presentation of the engineering of high-performance biopolymer-based bio-nanocomposites, as well as strategies for the use of various molecules in the detection of environmentally important guest analytes. This three-volume book explores the most relevant technological developments in nanomaterials sensors and offers a broad and comprehensive overview of cutting-edge research on advanced materials in the fast-moving sensors industry.

The authors explain the science behind nanomaterials for environmental remediation as well as the components and ingredients of the relevant materials. Readers will also find:

• Thorough introductions to sensory devices, polymer-based nano-biomaterials, and opto-electrochemical devices
• Comprehensive explorations of metal-organic frameworks, organic sensors, and organic-inorganic composite semiconductor sensors
• Practical discussions of vapochromic and vapoluminescent sensors
• Fulsome treatments of sensor ecosystems for health self-monitoring, including discussions of diabetes management

Perfect for materials scientists, mechanical engineers, and analytical chemists, Organic and Inorganic Materials Based Sensors will also benefit inorganic and organic chemists, robotics engineers, and professionals working in the sensor industry.

Dr. Sangita Das is working as post-doctoral research fellow at Durham University, England, UK. She received her B. Sc.
