Abstract: A D-shaped fiber-optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor with MXene (Ti3C2Tx) is proposed as the sensing enhancement material. A spin coating method was used to cover the gold film ...
In the first part of this series, she weighs up the idea that the Earth could really be flat… In 1838, Samuel Rowbotham, an English inventor and flat-Earth proponent, conducted a bizarre experiment on ...
Abstract: The development, modeling, and performance of AmphiSTAR, a novel high-speed amphibious robot, are detailed in this paper. The robot is palm-sized and fitted with propellers at its bottom, ...
Unlike countertop units that divert water from a tap to a sink-side cartridge, faucet-mounted water filters are compact devices that attach directly to your faucet. Depending on their efficacy, they ...
