A new AI-powered chip from UC Davis can analyze light and chemicals using a device tiny enough to fit almost anywhere. By ...

A spectrometer is a pretty common lab instrument, useful for determining the absorbance of a sample across a spectrum of light. The standard design is simple; a prism or diffraction grating to break ...

Resting on a fingertip, this miniature sensor replaces bulky laboratory equipment by using photon-trapping surface nanostructures and artificial intelligence (AI) to accurately analyze disease, check ...

For decades, bulky spectrometers have been the main tools for understanding how things are made of chemicals (a thing called composition). Spectrometers are a type of lab equipment that uses prisms or ...
