We developed a transparent and flexible, capacitive fingerprint sensor array with multiplexed, simultaneous detection of tactile pressure and finger skin temperature for mobile smart devices. In our approach, networks of hybrid nanostructures using ultra-long metal nanofibers and finer nanowires were formed as transparent, flexible electrodes of a multifunctional sensor array. These sensors exhibited excellent optoelectronic properties and outstanding reliability against mechanical bending. This fingerprint sensor array has a high resolution with good transparency. This sensor offers a capacitance variation ~17 times better than the variation for the same sensor pattern using conventional ITO electrodes. This sensor with the hybrid electrode also operates at high frequencies with negligible degradation in its performance against various noise signals from mobile devices. Furthermore, this fingerprint sensor array can be integrated with all transparent forms of tactile pressure sensors and skin temperature sensors, to enable the detection of a finger pressing on the display.

The study of cell mechanics was significant for understanding cellular physiological functions, the mechanisms of disease occurrence, and the development of novel therapeutic approaches. However, research on the mechanism of mechanical strain action at the single-cell level was relatively lacking. Herein, we developed a serpentine stretchable sensor array capable of exerting precise mechanical strain on cells and monitoring extracellular pH (pHe) changes at single cell level.

In the field of engineering structural health monitoring, acoustic source localization (ASL) is a common method to monitor early damage. Most of the existing ASL techniques have high requirements for accurate acquisition of time of arrival, and require complex iterative algorithms or signal processing techniques, which are not conducive to real-time monitoring. In this paper, a signal energy approach of acoustic source localization in plate structures using a discrete sensor array is proposed.

Antibiotics, celebrated as some of the most significant pharmaceutical breakthroughs in medical history, are capable of eliminating or inhibiting bacterial growth, offering a primary defense against a wide array of bacterial infections. However, the rise in antimicrobial resistance (AMR), driven by the widespread use of antibiotics, has evolved into a widespread and ominous threat to global public health. Thus, the creation of efficient methods for detecting resistance genes and antibiotics is imperative for ensuring food safety and safeguarding human health.
