  • Abstract
    Highlights some of the latest findings and research avenues in molecular sensors and actuators and also some of the problems encountered in developing such devices. The following topics are discussed: molecular sensors; biological molecular sensors (including immunosensors); artificial senses (including smell, taste, touch); Langmuir-Blodgett films; synthetic sensors (including gas sensors); molecular actuators (including microactuators); nanoactuators; doping of conducting polymers.<>
