Cooking is all about temperature control: too cold isn’t good enough, and too hot can ruin everything. To aid in this regard, ...

Terahertz radiation (THz), electromagnetic radiation with frequencies ranging between 0.1 and 10 THz, could be leveraged to ...

A photonic crystal fiber (PCF)-model interferometer (MI)-based relative humidity (RH) sensor is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The PCF-MI is formed by fusion splicing a short length of PCF ...

As I've experimented and played with a lot of different sensors, I've discovered that these basic devices can be built for ...

There must be no chemical reaction between the sensor material and the sample. Use a sensor with a low cell constant (0.01 to 0.1 cm-1) for low conductivity measurements and a sensor with a higher ...

Researchers have developed a flexible, transparent sensor that can detect temperature changes in real time without needing an ...

For a decade, scientists have believed that plants sensed temperature mainly through specialized proteins, and mainly at ...

With a little imagination (and a slight addiction to smart home tech), sensors can do all kinds of surprisingly useful things ...

Middle school students in a UNLV and University of Nevada, Reno Extension workshop learned how to grow plants in a ...

How does a cloud stay cool under direct sunlight—or seem to vanish in infrared? In nature, phenomena like white cumulus ...

Investigation of the effect of addition of external positive ions on the humidity-sensing properties of perovskite-based oxides is an interesting topic. Humidity-sensitive properties of barium ...
