New health monitors are flexible, transparent and graphene enabled

A new study reports on the development of low-power wearable devices enabled by graphene that can monitor multiple vital signs of humans, such as heart rate, respiration rate, blood pulse oxygenation, and exposure to UV radiation.

'Soft tactile logic' tech distributes decision-making throughout stretchable material

Inspired by octopuses, researchers have developed a structure that senses, computes and responds without any centralized processing - creating a device that is not quite a robot and not quite a computer, but has characteristics of both.

Scientists create a nanomaterial that is both twisted and untwisted at the same time

The material allows for incredibly sensitive detection of the direction molecules twist.

Significant progress made in inverse photoconductance

Researchers have modified the photoconductance of nanoparticles of tungsten oxide in a controlled manner.This research has potential applications in photonics and optomechanics,
