The research team headed by Gemma Reguera a microbiologist at the university published a complete report in the ‘Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences’. The studied microbe is a Geobacter with the ability to immobilize the […]

These sensors are important for applications that monitor environmental pollution resulting from traffic, and in general, from all combustion motors. The sensor’s active components are arrays of grown vertical InAs nanowires. A typical sensor would contain 500 such nanowires, and […]
