Dip chip technology tests toxicity on the go Posted: 14 May 2012 10:42 AM PDT Researchers have developed a portable "dip chip" that detects water toxicity quickly and accurately. Once perfected, the chip might be plugged into ordinary smartphones or PDA devices to provide a toxicity alert.

Scientists generate electricity from viruses Posted: 13 May 2012 11:46 AM PDT Scientists have developed a way to generate power using harmless viruses that convert mechanical energy into electricity. The scientists tested their approach by creating a generator that produces enough current to operate a small liquid-crystal display. Their generator is the first to produce electricity by harnessing the piezoelectric properties of a biological material.

Photonics: New approach to generating terahertz radiation will lead to new imaging and sensing applications Posted: 10 May 2012 06:56 AM PDT A new approach to generating terahertz radiation will lead to new imaging and sensing applications. The low energy of the radiation means that it can pass through materials that are otherwise opaque, opening up uses in imaging and sensing — for example, in new security scanners. In practice, however, applications have been difficult to implement.
