For decades, bulky spectrometers have been the main tools for understanding how things are made of chemicals (a thing called ...
The UC Davis device exploits the properties of photon-trapping surface textures (PTST), surface modifications that enhance the light absorption capabilities of silicon photodiodes in the near-IR range ...
For decades, the ability to visualize the chemical composition of materials, whether for diagnosing a disease, assessing food ...
Coupling mid-infrared “idler” photons with near-infrared “signal” photons enables cheaper, smaller and more efficient machines for uses such as greenhouse gas monitoring to medical diagnostics.
Detecting concealed explosives and chemical threats constitutes a critical challenge in global security, yet current ...
Resting on a fingertip, this miniature sensor replaces bulky laboratory equipment by using photon-trapping surface nanostructures and artificial intelligence (AI) to accurately analyze disease, check ...
