Abstract
The unique properties of semiconductor nanocrystals, including 2D semiconductors, have so far led to immense research focused on implementation of their properties in various environmental and bio-sensors. This chapter discusses the main advancements in modern environmental sensors measuring pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, turbidity, dissolved organic carbon, and dissolved metal ions. The chapter also reviews the effects of doping and surface functionalization as useful approaches for increasing antifouling resistance and tuning main sensing characteristics. The latest development in two-dimensional (2D) nano-materials for environmental sensors is also presented on the example of bio-sensors, and the prospects for future possibilities of expanding their applications are discussed.
