Plasmonic nano-particles sense chemicals better than ever
Specific molecules can be detected with unprecedented sensitivity using plasmonics and nano-particles – “100 times more sensitive than current similar sensors”, according to the University of Bath. At the heart of the sensor is an array of gold discs – the nano-particles – deposited on a transparent substrate. A laser (~760nm) is used to excite ‘surface lattice resonances’ (SLRs) amongst ...

Bath University CLEVeR at measuring vehicle emissions
Bath University has unveiled its new Centre for Low Emission Vehicle Research (CLEVeR). And what timing – automated vehicle testing has never been so newsworthy. And yes, it will help measure vehicle emissions (both diesel and petrol engines) while taking into account different driver behaviours. The aim is to bridge the gap between the lab and the real world by ...
