Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A comprehensive review of sensor technology, Current Advances in Sensors includes papers presented at recent conferences on sensors and sensor reviews that were originally published in the Journal of Physics E: Scientific Instruments. The introduction provides supplementary background information on the development of sensors, their commercial markets, and future potential. Some topics covered are microelectronic sensor technology, medical applications of silicon sensors, optical fibers and systems for industry, application of capacitance techniques in sensor design, permalloy magnetoresistive sensors, chemical and biological sensors, and gas sensors for automotive application.
"First published as a series of articles in Journal of physics E: Scientific instruments, 1983-86"--T.p. verso..
