"The
applications of sensors range from medical diagnostics to industrial
manufacturing and to defense and national security applications.
When an area spans such a large diversity of research, and where
research from many different countries is also involved, a review of
these developments becomes especially useful. Because it bridges
science and technology the field also provides a desired interaction
between researchers and research in technologically advanced and
developing countries. The present series of volumes, "The
Encyclopedia of Sensors" , the first of its kind, is intended
to provide a timely compendium of the entire field. As such it can
be expected to play a significant role in worldwide future progress
and understanding."

ENCYCLOPEDIA
DESCRIPTION |
| Encyclopedia
of Sensors is the first encyclopedia ever published in
the field of sensors. The multivolume encyclopedia will provide a
complete coverage of most recent advances and emerging new sensor
technologies in the fields of science, engineering and medicine.
Although there are many books focused on sensors however no
encyclopedic reference work has been published as of today. This
encyclopedia will cover all aspects of sensor science and technology
dealing with all types of sensor materials, their synthesis and
spectroscopic characterization, sensor designs, fabrication and
manufacturing techniques, sensor probes, features, physical,
chemical and biosensors, their applications in electronics, photonic
and optoelectronic industries, medicine, surface sensing, food
industry, environmental engineering and nanotechnology. It is
written for a wide range of audience from non-scientists to active
scientists and engineers, professionals and experts working in the
field of sensors. |
| KEY
FEATURES |

- Edited and written by internationally
known experts familiar with current sensor technologies
- Truly international, authors from 46
countries
- Timely, authoritative and most
comprehensive
- Published in both print and online
formats. Online edition will be updated
- Extensive cross-referencing in each
article provides reader with broader range of knowledge
- Multidisciplinary reference source for
all researchers working in science, engineering and medicine
- Available Online Edition allowing
multiple users and fully searchable text
