Chemical Sensors: Simulation and Modeling: Conductometric-Type Sensors is the second of a new five-volume comprehensive reference work that provides computer simulation and modeling techniques in various fields of chemical sensing and the important applications for chemical sensing such as bulk and surface diffusion, adsorption, surface reactions, sintering, conductivity, mass transport, and interphase interactions.
In this second volume, you will find background and guidance on:
- Phenomenological modeling and computational design of conductometric chemical sensors, based on nanostructured materials such as metal oxides, carbon nanotubes, and graphenes.
- Approaches used to quantitatively evaluate characteristics of sensitive structures in which electric charge transport depends on the interaction between the surfaces of the structures and chemical compounds in the surroundings.
Chemical sensors are integral to the automation of myriad industrial processes and everyday monitoring of such activities as public safety, engine performance, medical therapeutics, and many more. This five-volume reference work covering simulation and modeling will serve as the perfect complement to Momentum Press's 6-volume reference work, Chemical Sensors: Fundamentals of Sensing Materials and Chemical Sensors: Comprehensive Sensor Technologies, which present detailed information related to materials, technologies, construction, and application of various devices for chemical sensing. Each simulation and modeling volume in the present series reviews modeling principles and approaches peculiar to specific groups of materials and devices applied for chemical sensing.
