As buildings age, the demand for effective monitoring of their structural integrity has grown significantly. A breakthrough in nano-optical sensor technology now enables precise, real-time ...

The team successfully developed an advanced film-type strain sensor incorporating nano-fabrication technology. When applied to buildings or other infrastructure, the film's color shifts in accordance ...

Structural safety monitoring of buildings with color variations KIMM develops the world’s first monitoring technology using nano-optical sensor films to detect deformation ...

By adjusting the nanoparticle size between 91 and 284 nanometers, the researchers controlled how the sensor's color changed. The most noticeable color shift—from blue to red—occurred when the ...

Real-time video capturing the stretching of an 8×6-inch structural color pattern that features a flower bouquet in homage to 19th-century physicist Gabriel Lippmann’s work. The bright ...

Scientists call such colors structural color. They can last longer than pigments because they don't fade in the sun. "As long as you don't destroy the structure, the color is always there," Yang said.

Monolayers of densely packed Si NSs are produced from Si NS suspensions by the Langmuir–Blodgett method. The monolayers exhibit size-dependent structural color with a peak reflectance of 30–50%. The ...
