Springer Functional Nanostructures and Sensors for CBRN Defence

This Springer publication examines advanced nanostructure technology and sensor development for chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threat detection and environmental protection. The book addresses rapid advances in nanometer-scale materials preparation and processing, presenting innovative sensor and detector principles designed to safeguard against CBRN attacks, industrial contamination, and environmental hazards. Written for researchers and security professionals, it bridges nanotechnology applications with practical defence solutions, covering detection systems for dangerous waste gases and liquids that threaten soil, air and water quality. The work reflects modern security challenges including international terrorism whilst providing scientific frameworks for applying cutting-edge nanotechnology to real-world environmental safety and contamination monitoring.
