CHEMICAL SENSORS background
« on: March 31, 2015, 10:45:53 PM »
I find it quite difficult to understand since i'm 1st year undergraduate. I'm really interested to learn this topic.
Please I want to know what should i study to have a better experience while learning about Chemical sensors.
Thanks so much in advance.

There are many types of sensors, at this level of generality there is no other answer than to "learn chemistry, around graduation things will become much clearer".

@borek ,thanks for answer!
Sorry about it.
This is the book I just purchased. http://www.amazon.es/Principles-Chemical-Sensors-Jiri-Janata/dp/0387699309.

I want to understand it completely. I want to know the recommended background.

To quote preface:

Quote
The subject of chemical sensors is much too broad (...) The challenge for me has been to present uniform logical coverage of such a large area. In spite of its relatively shallow depth, it is intended as a graduate course.

My understanding is that you will need a little bit of everything. If it is intended as graduate course it assumes you know everything required for graduation - so apart from general chemistry at least basic courses in physical chemistry, spectroscopy, instrumental analysis, biochemistry and so on.
