Evidently, electrochemical sensing has revolutionized the electroanalytical detections in the world. Since 19th century, huge amount of growth is visible on various fronts, such as biosensors, energy devices, semiconductor devices, communication, embedded systems, sensors etc. However, the major research gap lies in the fact that most of the reported literatures are bulk systems hence has limitations for practical application.
Research in these domains has been carried out by both academia and industry, whereby academic being the backbone whose intellectual outputs have been widely adopted by the industry and implemented for consumer-at-large. In order to impart portability to the electrochemical sensors for point of care application, the collaboration of electrochemistry, microfluidics, electronics and communication as an interdisciplinary forum is crucial. The miniaturization, automation, IoT enabling and integration are the requirement for building the mentioned research gap. The conversion of electrochemical sensing theoretical concepts to practical applications in real time via miniaturization and integration of microfluidics will enhance this domain. In this context, off lately, several research groups have developed miniaturized microdevices as electrochemical sensing platforms. This has led to a demand of offering a reference book as a guideline for the PhD programs in electrochemistry, MEMS, electronics and communication. Undoubtedly, this will have a huge impact for R&D in industries, public-funded research institutes and academic institutions.
With growing technological development, the use of portable electronic devices has increased tremendously. Miniaturized electronic devices such as intelligent robots, foldable mobile phones, wearable electronics, etc. are emerging as advanced devices to enhance the living standards of people. Since the size of portable electronic devices is shrinking due to advancements in nanotechnology, low-power integrated circuits in various devices like microprocessors, wireless communication chips, etc. will lead to the growing usage of miniature embedded micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) which work in controlled/uncontrolled environments to collect, process, save, and transfer the data. In order to achieve advancements in next-generation electronics, it is imperative to explore miniaturized energy storage devices which possess appreciable flexibility as well as portability.
The book will provide a single-forum to understand the current research trends and future perspectives of various electrochemical sensors and there integration in microfluidic devices, automation and point of care testing. For students, the book will become a motivation for them to explore these areas for their career standpoints. For the professionals, the book will become a thought-provoking stage to manoeuvre the next generation devices / processes for commercialization
