Sommario/riassunto

This book highlights the significance and usefulness of nanomaterials



for the development of sensing devices and their real-life applications. The book also addresses various means of synthesizing 2D/3D nanomaterials, e.g., hydrothermal deposition process, electrospinning, Ostwald ripening, sputtering heterogeneous deposition, liquid-phase preparation, the vapor deposition approach, and aerosol flame synthesis. It presents an informative overview of the role of nanoscale materials in the development of advanced sensor devices at nanoscale and discusses the applications of nanomaterials in different forms prepared by diverse techniques in the field of optoelectronics and biomedical devices. Major features, such as type of nanomaterials, fabrication methods, applications, tasks, benefits and restrictions, and saleable features, are also covered.
