A miniaturized sensor that can measure chemistry on a chip

Wednesday, August 17, 2016 - 06:31 in Physics & Chemistry

By combining expertise in photonics - manipulating light beams in nanoscale waveguides on a chip – and materials science, Cornell researchers have laid the groundwork for a chemical sensor on a chip that could be used in small portable devices to analyze samples in a lab, monitor air and water quality in the field and perhaps even detect explosives.
