Inspired by the enhanced visual system of the Papilio xuthus butterfly, a team of researchers have developed an imaging sensor capable of 'seeing' into the UV range inaccessible to human eyes.
Rresearchers report a new liquid templating strategy for engineering highly tunable, durable aerogels. The customizable gels showed improved emi shielding and record oil absorption.
Raman spectroscopy enhanced by graphene substrates can detect molecules with extremely high sensitivity. New research demonstrates active control of graphene's band structure to optimize chemical enhancement and versatility across diverse analytes.
In this new pH sensor, fluid samples run through a series of microfluidic channels and over three highly sensitive electrodes made out of light-responsive layered materials and metals.
