Most contemporary portable electronics, including laptops, smartphones and smart watches, are powered by batteries that need ...

Researchers from Skoltech have devised a way to detect infrared radiation across a wide range without cooling the detector.

Smart homes, robotics, wearables, and the next generation of intelligent sensing devices are all targets of Innatera's Pulsar ...

A new copper-magnesium-iron catalyst transforms CO2 into CO at low temperatures with record-breaking efficiency and stability. The discovery paves the way for affordable, scalable production of carbon ...

The amount of carbon dioxide detected in the atmosphere hit a record high in April. CO 2 levels averaged about 431 parts per million (ppm) over that month, according to data collected at the National ...

Direct sensor-to-microcontroller interface techniques enable the conversion of physical measurands into digital signals without dedicated analogue-to-digital converter chips or elaborate conditioning ...

Once held up as a key solution to climate change, a field that aims to remove carbon from the atmosphere is struggling to catch on. By David Gelles David has been writing about carbon removal ...

As humans burn fossil fuels and pump carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, we are heating up the planet. But there is another alarming impact of this climate pollution: it may be changing the chemistry ...

An ant that can turn carbon dioxide in the air into dolomite stone in its exoskeleton may hold clues to how humans can sequester greenhouse gases to avert climate disaster. Fungus-farming ants forage ...

Abstract: Methods that are real-time and affordable for monitoring and regulating carbon dioxide emissions of internal combustion engine vehicles are urgently needed as environmental pollution from ...

Three cheap hygroscopic salt solutions on carbon nanotube sensors distinguish nine toxic gases, including warfare agents, without engineered receptor molecules. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Many toxic gases, ...

There is widespread recognition that efforts to meet global climate targets cannot be met by curbing new carbon dioxide emissions alone and will also require removing carbon from the atmosphere at ...
