Thanks to the development of micro-electronics, sensors can be found everywhere in industry from food engineering to fashion computer design. These sensors can be operating at the complex nature-animal interface, process gigantic volumes of information in real time.
According to MarketandMarket, the Industrial Sensors market will grow from USD 18.2 billion in 2020 to USD 29.0 billion by...
Our group fabricates and develops radiation detectors based on emulsions of superheated liquid droplets in a compatible gel matrix. The operation at reduced superheat renders the devices insensitive to minimum ionising particles that plague a variety of experiments aiming at the detection rare events induced by heavy/ier particles. The superheated emulsion is therefore an excellent tool for...

The urge for more efficient memory systems at low dimensions is a current requirement for the technological development of a wide range of applications, from industrial devices to daily life appliances. Among the possible candidates, cylindrical nanowires (NWs) have already shown their potential to increase storage density [1]; however, the device design still requires a magnetic tunnel...
Hydrogen (H2) fuel is emerging as one of the most viable green solutions in response to the rising global energy consumption. However, due to its high flammability, H2 can cause severe explosions in case of leakage [1]. Several H2 sensors have been developed, and palladium (Pd) based sensors have shown important optical and electrical properties, with the ability to dissociate catalytically...
When an optical beam interacts with matter its polarization state can change as a function of certain properties of the material (refractive index, surface roughness, …) and the beam characteristics. Therefore, small differences in such properties can cause the material to reflect or transmit the same polarized incident beam differently. Consequently, measurements of polarization can be used...
Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) phenomenon in materials with noble metal nanoparticles is a hot topic due to the unique optical properties of the nanoparticles. Their optical response can be tailored by changing the size, shape and distribution, as well as the refractive index of the surrounding dielectric matrix [1,2]. If the nanoparticles are embedded in a porous host matrix...
Sensing smart labels are an essential component of the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm to provide the necessary information and data. The emergence of printing technologies applied to the field of materials, enables low-cost, flexible, easy-to-integrate sensors with tailored response [1, 2]. The combination of printing techniques along with new materials with tailored electrical and magnetic...
Gas sensing, based on bulk refractive index (RI) changes, has been a challenging task for localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy [1]. In this work, it is demonstrated that a plasmonic thin film composed of Au nanoparticles embedded in a CuO matrix can be used to detect small changes (as low as 6×10-5 RIU) in bulk RI of gases at room temperature, using a High-Resolution LSPR...
