The phrase ‘liquid metal’ may bring to mind something hazardous, like mercury or molten steel. But in the Laboratory of Photonic Materials and Fiber Devices (FIMAP) in EPFL’s School of Engineering, it ...

Fabrication of sensors by 3D printing combines speed, freedom of design, and the possibility of using waste as a substrate. Various results have been obtained in a circular economy mode, whereby ...

Quantum sensors offer dramatically increased sensitivity compared to their classical incumbents or even enable new sensing capabilities altogether. Multiple industries are expected to benefit from ...

Graphene has lived up to its promise in the lab. Now, EU researchers are working on supporting its wider adoption in high-end electronics, photonics and sensors. Dr. Inge Asselberghs has been closely ...

A thumbnail-sized diamond chip just pulled off something that quantum physics says should be extraordinarily difficult: measuring three distinct properties of a microwave field in a single shot, at ...
