Encyclopedia of Sensors and Biosensors

Roger Narayan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 oct 2022
Sensors are all around us. The development of more sophisticated sensors for use in all areas of everyday life is a vibrant and highly active area of research and technology. In healthcare, for example, consumers are demanding ever more complex devices for diagnosis of medical conditions. The development of devices for portable and real-time monitoring of hormone concentrations, gas concentrations, and other biological processes will enable home-based treatment of individuals with chronic medical conditions. Novel biomaterials, including biomimetic materials and nanoscale materials, are currently being developed for biomedical sensors. It is anticipated that research into novel medical devices and prostheses will play a significant role in improving the quality of healthcare provided to patients.
The Encyclopedia of Sensor Technologies will serve as a unique foundational level resource for the rapidly growing sensor community and will cover all of the innovations in materials, designs, devices, and software that find their way into new types of sensors.
Covering both physical, chemical, and biosensors, it will be outstandingly illustrated with over 1000 colour images. All aspects of sensor technology will be addressed including sensor design, sensor manufacturing, and assessment of sensor performance. In addition, applications of sensors in healthcare, food safety, environmental engineering and other fields will be discussed, making this a truly interdisciplinary work.
Sections will be structured using a logical and thematic approach and chapters will take a balanced viewpoint, listing both advantages and disadvantages of each type of sensor, as well as any problems associated with them. Perfect for those learning their trade in both academia and industry, this vital reference work will serve many groups, including chemists, engineers, biological scientists, clinicians, and industrial researchers.


  • Provide students and new scientists with a comprehensive, ‘one-stop’ resource in sensor technology giving them a solid grounding in unfamiliar topics
  • Most up to date reference resource available – and provides truly interdisciplinary coverage across all aspects of sensor technology
  • Ideal for researchers/scientists in both academia and industry and allows experienced researchers to put their work into a broader context
  • Well-illustrated with over 1000 colour images detailing the full range of sensors and devices covered.
  • Written by world-leading scholars in the field with cross-referencing of all related material
