The researchers therefore replaced rigid, bulky substrates that usually host electronics with a thin, light, and flexible ...

We’ve heard before that wearable sensors have the potential to ... these electronic skin patches are made using graphene. Less than a millimeter thick, they’re practically invisible and ...

The graphene sheet was stretched like ... exhaled breath or gas released through the skin. “The device could be integrated in a mobile sensor system,” says Takahashi. “It shouldn’t be ...

Scientists have reported a graphene sensor they say costs a buck and can detect dangerous bacteria and heavy metals in drinking water. The sensor uses a GFET — a graphene-based field effect ...

To account for these drawbacks, recent developments in gas sensors have focused on carbon nanomaterials, including the ever-popular graphene. This versatile and relatively inexpensive material can ...

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 ...

Researchers at the University of Turku, Finland, have succeeded in producing sensors from single-wall carbon nanotubes that are suitable for this purpose. Single-wall carbon nanotubes are nanomaterial ...
