Chemical engineers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have developed a new way to create inexpensive chemical sensors for detecting explosives, industrial pollutants, or even the chemical markers ...

Posifa Technologies today announced the availability of new models in its PLF2000 Series of MEMS liquid flow sensors, expanding designers’ options for ultra-low-flow medical, life science, and ...

Recently I came across some non-contact liquid level sensors and gathered them out of curiosity. They have been available in the market for the past few years, but this time I was lucky enough to get ...

Schematic diagram providing an overview of this review. Liquid crystals can be categorized into nematic, smectic, columnar, and cholesteric liquid crystals. Recently, metasurfaces have been integrated ...

How many times have you stared at a home COVID-19 test, waiting for the faint line that confirms an infection? Those home antigen tests often fail to detect a recent infection or one with no symptoms.

Ions influence conductivity and mobility in molecular liquid crystals, affecting electrical behavior, stability, and performance in both established and emerging technologies. (Nanowerk Spotlight) The ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Liquid crystals (LCs) are a distinct state of matter exhibiting properties between crystalline solids and isotropic liquids. Their partially ordered structure gives rise to unique ...
