A UK research team has developed a pioneering blood test that could change the way lung cancer is detected and monitored.

(Nanowerk News) What do motion detectors, self-driving cars, chemical analyzers and satellites have in common? They all contain detectors for infrared (IR) light. At their core and besides readout ...

Mosquito-borne diseases affect hundreds of millions of people every year, with a disproportionate impact on the developing world. One mosquito species, Aedes aegypti, is a primary vector of viruses ...

Military-grade infrared vision goggles use detectors made of mercury cadmium telluride, a semiconducting material that’s particularly sensitive to infrared radiation. Unfortunately, you need to keep ...

Toxic metals are pushing infrared detector makers into a corner, but NYU Tandon researchers have developed a cleaner solution using colloidal quantum dots. These detectors are made like “inks,” ...

Okay, we know soap bubbles are the traditional method for refrigerant leak detection on HVACR systems and they can be a very tried and true indicator. But, when you need to pinpoint micro-leaks fast, ...

In fact, his team found the same thing in tests with only IR: infrared alone has no impact. A trick for sensing infrared It isn't possible for mosquitoes to detect thermal infrared radiation the same ...
