Nanoscale sensors offer several advantages over traditional sensors:
High Sensitivity: Due to their small size and large surface area-to-volume ratio, nanoscale sensors can detect extremely low concentrations of target molecules. Specificity: The unique properties of nanomaterials can be tailored to interact specifically with certain molecules, reducing the likelihood of false positives. Miniaturization: Nanoscale sensors can be integrated into small, portable devices, making them suitable for point-of-care diagnostics and in-field monitoring. Rapid Response: The small size and high reactivity of nanomaterials enable quick detection and response times.
