Abstract
Purpose– This paper aims to describe the nanosensor research reported at the “Nanomaterials: Applications & Properties 2012” conference, held in the Ukraine in September 2012. Design/methodology/approach– Following a short overview of the event, this paper describes the nanosensor research reported at the conference, arranged according to the variables involved, i.e. chemical sensing, gas sensors and physical sensing. Brief consideration is also given to developments in power sources. Findings– This shows that, although nanosensors were not a major theme at the event, several innovative developments for sensing a range of molecular and physical variables were reported. Originality/value– This paper provides details of the nanosensor research reported at “Nanomaterials: Applications & Properties 2012”.
