Several factors can contribute to sensitivity reduction in nanotechnology applications:
Environmental Conditions: Changes in temperature, humidity, and exposure to chemicals can alter the properties of nanoscale materials, leading to reduced sensitivity. Material Degradation: Over time, materials used in nanodevices can degrade, leading to a loss of performance. This can be due to oxidation, corrosion, or other chemical reactions. Design Limitations: Inadequate design can also lead to sensitivity reduction. For example, poor alignment of nanostructures or suboptimal material choices can limit device performance.
