How Do Nanomaterials Enhance Surveillance Capabilities?
Nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, and nanosensors have unique electronic, optical, and mechanical properties. These properties enable the creation of devices that are extremely sensitive, allowing for the detection of minute quantities of substances or changes in the environment. For instance, nanosensors can detect chemical leaks or biological agents with high precision, making them invaluable in homeland security and environmental protection.
