Drone Flying is a New Method for Monitoring River Habitats
Monitoring the quality and distribution of physical habitat parameters in rivers, such as water depth, grain size and flow velocity, is vital for species survival.
Stretchable Ink for Flexible Electronic Fabrics
When fabric stretches, printed patterns crack and separate. This new conductive ink maintains the integrity of printed circuits for electronic textiles.
Mimicking Wrinkly Fingers: Toward Creating Smart Surfaces
Inspired by human fingers after prolonged exposure to water, moisture responsive wrinkling surfaces are developed.
Improving Avalanche Photodiodes – Quantum Dots do the Trick
An avalanche photodiode design with a quantum dot multiplication structure attains a high maximum gain factor and a superior gain noise performance.
A Golden Guide to Brain Surgery
Taking the headache out of brain surgery: these gold nanoparticles cross the blood–brain barrier and report when they hit tumour tissue.
Reducing the “Ouch” in Glucose Monitoring Devices for Diabetes
A comprehensive physicochemical analysis of a prototype continuous glucose monitor developed as a less invasive and more patient-friendly alternative to the lancet based glucose monitors is reported.
Blooming Knit Flowers
Knitted soft morphing flowers—lilies, daffodils, gamopetalous and calla flowers—are fabricated using thermally responsive smart fibres.
