Woodhead Publishing Functionalized Nanomaterials for Biosensing and Bioelectronics Applications: Trends and Challenges (Woodhead Publishing Series in Electronic and Optical Materials)

Functionalized Nanomaterials for Biosensing and Bioelectronics Applications: Trends and Challenges describes current and future opportunities for integrating the unique properties of two-dimensional nanomaterials with bioelectronic interfaces. Sections focus on background information and fundamental concepts, review the available functionalized nanomaterials and their properties, explore the integration of functionalized nanomaterials with bioelectronics, including available fabrication and characterization methods, electrical behavior at the interface, and design and synthesis guidelines, and review examples of microsystems where functionalized nanomaterials are being integrated with bioelectronics. This book is suitable for researchers and practitioners in academia and R&D working in materials science and engineering, analytical chemistry and related fields.
