Force measurement sits at the heart of modern engineering. Robots that handle fragile parts, aerospace systems that can't ...

In a new study, researchers produced nanomaterials that could be used in developing more accurate sensors for healthcare in the future. For example, the levels of female hormones are so low that very ...

The 'spooky action at a distance' that once unnerved Einstein may be on its way to being as pedestrian as the gyroscopes that currently measure acceleration in smartphones. The "spooky action at a ...

A new type of sensor that levitates dozens of glass microparticles could revolutionize the accuracy and efficiency of sensing, laying the foundation for better autonomous vehicles, navigation and even ...

Carbon nanotubes in solution. Carbon nanotubes with different chirality, or“twist”, have different optical properties: one type of nanotube is yellow and the other is violet. In a new study, ...
