Composites materials is basically the combining of unique properties of materials to have synergistic effects. A combination of materials is needed to adapt to certain properties for any application area. There is an everlasting desire to make composite materials stronger, lighter or more durable than traditional materials. Carbon materials are known to be attractive in composites because of their combination of chemical and physical properties. In the recent years, development of new composites has been influenced by precision green approaches that restrict hazardous substances and waste created during production. This book ranges from the fundamental principles underpinning the fabrication of different composite materials to their devices, for example, applications in energy harvesting, memory devices, electrochemical biosensing and other advanced composite-based biomedical applications. This book provides a compilation of innovative fabrication strategies and utilization methodologies which are frequently adopted in the advanced composite materials community with respect to developing appropriate composites to efficiently utilize macro and nanoscale features. The key topics are: Pioneer composite materials for printed electronics Current-limiting defects in superconductors High-tech ceramics materials Carbon nanomaterials for electrochemical biosensing Nanostructured ceramics and bioceramics for bone cancer Importance of biomaterials for bone regeneration Tuning hydroxyapatite particles Carbon nanotubes reinforced bioceramic composite Biomimetic prototype interface

Presents a comprehensive and interdisciplinary review of the majorcutting-edge technology research areas—especially those onnew materials and methods as well as advanced structures andproperties—for various sensor and detection devices The development of sensors and detectors at macroscopic ornanometric scale is the driving force stimulating research insensing materials and technology for accurate detection in solid,liquid, or gas phases; contact or non-contact configurations; ormultiple sensing. The emphasis on reduced-scale detectiontechniques requires the use of new materials and methods. Thesetechniques offer appealing perspectives given by spin crossoverorganic, inorganic, and composite materials that could be uniquefor sensor fabrication. The influence of the length, composition,and conformation structure of materials on their properties, andthe possibility of adjusting sensing properties by doping or addingthe side-groups, are indicative of the starting point ofmultifarious sensing. The role of intermolecular interactions,polymer and ordered phase formation, as well as behavior underpressure and magnetic and electric fields are also important factsfor processing ultra-sensing materials. The 15 chapters written by senior researchers in AdvancedSensor and Detection Materials cover all these subjects and keyfeatures under three foci: 1) principals and perspectives, 2) newmaterials and methods, and 3) advanced structures and propertiesfor various sensor devices.
