While fuel cells generate clean energy, fuel cell sensors generate precise measurements and are a gold standard for breath alcohol analysis.

Researchers have created “Smart Underwear,” a wearable device that measures flatulence by detecting hydrogen produced by gut microbes. Early tests suggest people may pass gas about 32 times a day—much ...

Scientists say the path to commercial fusion power may hinge on better ways to measure the behavior of superheated plasma.

The search for materials that can conduct electricity at room temperature without losing energy is one of the greatest and most consequential challenges of modern physics: loss-free power transmission ...

A catalyst design developed in the lab of Professor Ted Sargent increases efficiency, turning captured CO₂ into high-purity ethylene for plastics and packaging.

A new water sensor built from leftover refinery sulfur can tell mercury, silver, and iron apart at very low levels. That turns an unwanted industrial residue into a tool that could spot contamination ...
