Chemical sensors are devices that detect the presence of specific chemical compounds called analytes. The recognition element of the chemical sensor is sensitive to the presence of specific chemical ...

A prototype nanotechnology-based sensor offers the possibility for ubiquitous, networked, real-time chemical agent detection and tracking. By using easily produced super-small components, the devices ...

A trio of NETL (National Energy Technology Laboratory) scientists recently released a paper entitled “Metal-organic framework thin films as versatile chemical sensing materials,” which is considered ...

For 25 years, chemists have been finding applications that take advantage of the extreme surface areas of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In just 1 g of some of these porous materials, the areas can ...

Over the past few years, there have been remarkable breakthroughs in the field of medical technology, leading to a significant transformation in patient care and diagnostic procedures. The ...

Ceramics are materials which have existed for a long period of time and have since evolved from the materials used to make porcelain. Aside from conventional ceramics seen in art galleries, there are ...

Simply put, sensors are the eyes and ears of industrial automation. Regardless of the application, automation is simply not possible in today’s manufacturing process without sensors. There are many ...
