 A CMOS MEMS-based Membrane-Bridge Nanomechanical Sensor for Small Molecule Detection
- In response to these shortcomings, we introduce a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor bio-microelectromechanical system (CMOS BioMEMS) based piezoresistive membrane-bridge (MB) sensor for detecting small molecule (phenytoin) concentrations as the demonstration. Phenytoin is one of anticonvulsant drugs licensed for the management of seizures ...

 The Fastest Spinning Object Ever Could Detect the Elusive Vacuum Friction
- This idea has accumulated a consensus in the last 10 years, but no one has been able to measure vacuum friction. Enter the micro-scale silica gravitron, where the spinning particles could move fast enough to generate measurable vacuum friction for the first time. “Torque sensors are also widely used in studying small-scale magnetism ...

 Walking the wire: Real-time imaging helps reveal active sites of photocatalysts
- Nanoscale photocatalysts are small, man-made particles that harvest energy from sunlight to produce liquid fuels and other useful chemicals. But even within the same batch, the particles tend to vary widely in size, shape and surface composition. That makes it hard for researchers to tell what's really doing the work. A real-time imaging ...
