Nanosensors: An Overview Till 2020

Abstract

Sensors are widely used in our daily lives making it easier and better in every aspect. From home appliances to medical diagnostic systems, they are helpful in everything and anything we can think of. As the technology is advancing, we have started creating better and more reliable sensors that are hard to see with our naked eye but will have the same functionality as the sensors we have today. So, what are these sensors, what can we call them, how do they define them? Well, they are called nanosensors. The name itself suggests they are sensors that are nanometer in scale, but the nanosensors can be defined as follows.
