Publisher's Synopsis
Recent years have witnessed an explosive growth of research in the field of Sensors and Actuators. To keep pace with this research and to place recent advances in perspective, the Editors have invited thirty-five international experts to review their areas of specialty. In these twenty-two in-depth critical reviews the whole of the solid-state sensor field is surveyed. This format provides the reader with more specialized information and references than found in a general review article and offers that broad perspective which would otherwise have to be gained by reading a large number of research papers. It is felt that this book will meet the needs of the many research workers currently active in this multidisciplinary field as well as being valuable for those about to enter this fascinating area of research.
