In this experiment we are going to work with a sensor which is a resistor that depends on light. In a dark environment, the resistor will have a very high resistance. As photons (light) land on the ...
Sensors used to monitor extreme environments need to provide reliable measurements despite high temperatures and harsh conditions. Now, researchers have developed a piezoelectric sensor that works at ...
Twist, bend, or squeeze piezoelectric materials, and they produce electricity–an effect that is used in microphones and telephones. Now, taking advantage of the piezoelectric effect in zinc-oxide ...
A KAIST research team led by Professor Keon Jae Lee from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and the College of Medicine of the Catholic University of Korea has developed a highly ...
The ability to measure subtle changes in arterial pressure using devices mounted on the skin can be valuable for monitoring vital signs in emergency care, detecting the early onset of cardiovascular ...
Piezoelectric materials, which generate a voltage in response to mechanical deformation, are finding increasing numbers of applications in devices like accelerometers and energy harvesting from ...
Researchers have developed a new reliable and durable sensor that can work in temperatures as high as 900 degrees Celsius or 1,650 degrees Fahrenheit and can be used in multiple industries. Extreme ...
While attending the MEMS & Sensors Executive Congress 2016 (MSEC2016), I met two very bright and capable young men, Nicholas Fritz and Jonathan Garich, from the Blain-Christen Lab at Arizona State ...
