About some novel nanosensors and nanosensory systems

Abstract

The science and technology of sensors and sensory systems as well as their industrial applications are rapidly developing directions of modern world economy. The quality of sensory instruments and networks is influencing almost all fields of information technology, environmental protection and level of production sites. Sensory networks are also doing much for defense and security of civil society. Elaboration of novel nanosensory materials, elements, devices and their management and control systems is one of the important tasks of physics and technology – the multidisciplinary field of natural science and engineering. The novel properties of well known semiconductors: germanium, silicon, metal oxides, etc. which are reachable by precise doping of different impurities (boron isotopes, 3d-metals, etc.) makes possible to establish of different high sensitive devices, and among them gamma and neutron radiation nanosensors, temperature sensors of high stability, resistive sensors with memory, and others. These instruments integrated in recently developing intelligence networks including quantum information technologies based ones are the principal target of nowadays research works.
