A new CRISPR-powered light sensor can detect the faintest whispers of cancer in a single drop of blood.

Patients who remain in bed for long periods of time may develop pressure sores, which can in turn become potentially life-threatening chronic skin ulcers. A new sensor could help keep that from ...

For the millions of people living with end‑stage kidney disease, hemodialysis is more than a medical procedure, it is a ...

Researchers have developed a new optical sensor that provides a simple way to achieve real-time detection of extremely low levels of arsenic in water. Researchers have developed a new optical sensor ...

Researchers create a nanoscale light switch operating 10,000 times faster than electronic transistors, opening possibilities ...

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

Using their Mosquito fabrication method, the researchers created a fan-out pattern of multiple thin light paths inside a thin sheet of PDMS. This created four optical channels that could be used for ...
