A new journal from the Advanced Materials family covering all aspects of theory and simulation in natural sciences is launching in early 2018.
Sensors
Remove Nuclear Waste With Smart Photonic Crystals
Photonic crystal hydrogels for monitoring and removal of uranium in water.
Painting Silk with Water and Light
A naturally occurring structural protein (silk fibroin) is used to generate a large inverse opal. Selective exposure to water and/or light can change silk’s conformation thus painting different structural colors.
2D Nanostructured Materials As Gas Sensors – A Review
2D nanostructured materials as promising gas-sensing materials for advanced sensors.
Strain Sensors that Stitch into your Sportswear
These stretchable optic fibre-based sensors could be stitched right into your clothes to monitor muscle strain during exercise.
Bioinspired Composite Microfibers for Skin Adhesion and Signal Amplification of Wearable Sensors
Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems develop a durable, flexible adhesive film for use in wearable healthcare devices.
Trace TNT Detection: Reducing Potential Security and Environmental Threats
The enhanced emission of Cu nanocrystals/MOF composites is selectively quenched by TNT.
New Optical Sensor For Water: Monitoring Water Phases Under Extreme Conditions
A new type of surface optical sensor for water capable of being embedded in aircraft wings with no influence on the aerodynamic design and capable of record high-performance.
Getting Bimetallic Nanoparticles in Shape for Application
