Abstract

In the research of nanocomposite, its selective and sensitive explosive detection is very critical. Due to a series of causes, including the vast collection of materials that can be used as explosives, lack of easy to detect signatures and broad ranges of means to deploy such weapons, and lack of affordable sensors of great sensibility and selectivity, explosive trace detection has been exceedingly difficult and costly. The fight against explosives needs a high resilience and selectivity coupled with the potential to lower deployment costs of sensors using mass processing. Nanosensors should fulfill the criteria of an efficient framework for explosive trace detection. In this research work, we confer about the ability of nanosensors to detect trace explosions, based upon high sensitivity and selectivity on nano mechanical sensors for both receiver and receptor-free sensing, which can be used because of their versatility and are incorporated into a multimodal sensor system.
