- Ultrathin, flexible film that can act as a sensor for innovative technologies
Integrated within a glove, the new sensory film can communicate the current position of the wearer's hand and fingers. By establishing a direct connection between the virtual and real working world...
- Engineers turn polymer films into self-sensing high-tech actuators
They might only be made from thin silicon film, but they can squeeze down hard, deliver a powerful thrust, vibrate or hold any required position. And because they can act as sensors, they are becom...
- Blood is thicker than water - and blood plasma is, too
A German-American research team has succeeded in demonstrating that blood plasma has a much greater effect on how blood flows than was previously thought. The groups led by Christian Wagner (Saarla...
- Lung mucus gel scaffold prevents nanoparticles from getting through
Scientists at the Saarland University and the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) unraveled lung mucus's physical properties: They discovered that a rigid gel scaffold in lung mucus separ...
- Researchers want to accelerate the scanning probe microscope
Since more than twenty years, scanning force microscopes are employed in research and industry. Their enormous resolution triggered many applications in nanotechnology. Their rather low image rate ...
