Satellite analysis confirms rising temperatures and wind patterns are driving aerosol spikes across India, with a record high in 2022 following the historic lows of the COVID-19 lockdown.
Adding minuscule Molybdenum Disulfide flakes helps organize polymer chains, paving the way for faster, more efficient bendable electronics.
Scientists from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT Kgp) and GLA University, Mathura have developed a novel, low power humidity sensor using molybdenum disulphide nanoflakes and platinum nanocrystals.
Micro electro-mechanical Systems (MEMS), the technology of microscopic devices with moving parts, are finding new range of applications in the recent past due to the trend of ‘miniaturization’. They are increasingly being applied to an array of sensor technologies, including gas sensors. However, for MEMS based gas sensors to detect small traces of gases, they need to operate at higher temperatures. Now, researchers have designed a microheater made of molybdenum, which can successful provide the required range of temperature for the sensor to operate.
