Synopsis

Obtain, for the first time, descriptions of physical principles, practical designs, and applications of modern sensors for virtually all measurement needs. This work addresses fundamental physical principles of sensing and shows how information is converted from non- electrical into electrical format, digitized, and transmitted. Readers will discover hard-to-find reference data on physical, electrical, optical, mechanical, and other properties of materials and sensing elements that are of great practical importance in modern applied science and engineering. Of special interest to applied physicists and research engineers involved in the detection and measurement of physical effects.
