Sommario/riassunto

In its case law, the European Court of Human Rights has acknowledged that national courts are bound to give effect to Article 8 of the European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR) which sets out the right



to private and family life, when they rule on controversies between private individuals. Article 8 of the ECHR has thus been accorded mittelbare Drittwirkung or indirect 'third-party' effect in private law relationships.The German law of privacy, centring on the ""allgemeines Persönlichkeitsrecht"", has quite a long history, and the influence of the European Court of Human Rights' int

Sommario/riassunto

The development of sensors at macroscopic or nanometric scales in solid, liquid, or gas phases, contact or noncontact configurations, has driven the research of sensor & detection materials and technology into high gear. The emphasis on detection techniques requires the use of spin crossover organic, inorganic and composite materials and methods that could be unique for sensors fabrication.  The influence of length, composition and conformation structure of materials on their properties and the possibilities to adjust sensing properties by doping or addin
