研究目的
To review the progress in CNT-based nanosensors and the application of dielectrophoresis (DEP) in device making, focusing on the sensing of gases, temperature, bioparticles, light, pressure, stress, and strain.
研究成果
Recent studies show that CNTs can be used as gas sensors for NH3, H2, NO2, acetone, methanol, and ethanol gas detection, as thermal sensors for temperature detection, as biosensors for DNA and bacteria, have the ability to distinguish infrared and ultraviolet lights, and can serve as sensors for pressure, stress, and strain sensing. The unique nanostructure and properties of CNTs provide great opportunities towards extreme miniaturization, high sensitivity, rapid response, and low power consumption of the CNT-based sensors. DEP technique offers a quick and pollution-free batch manipulation of CNTs in sensor-making process, accelerating the industrial applications of CNTs in sensing and many other fields.
研究不足
The paper does not explicitly mention the limitations of the research or the DEP technique in CNT assembly and sensor fabrication.
