Design and Applications of Nanomaterial-Based and Biomolecule-Based Nanodevices and Nanosensors

This review will highlight recent research underlying the design of novel nanodevices and nanosensors that incorporate graphene, nanodots, nanowires, and biomolecules including DNA aptamers and peptides. The emphasis is on models and theory that guide the design of these nanodevices and nanosensors. In selected cases, research designed to test the usefulness of these designs is highlighted in this chapter.
