Microplastics larger than 20 µm appear to be routinely present in commercially available eye drops, according to research published in Cornea. The investigation employed the use of micro-Fourier ...

Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both humans and mice by converting infrared light into visible light.

Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both humans and mice by converting infrared light into visible light.

For example, flickering infrared light could be used to transmit information in security, rescue, encryption or anti-counterfeiting settings.” The lenses use specially engineered nanoparticles that ...

The application of artificial neural network (ANN) techniques to spectroscopy has proven to be a powerful tool for the rapid and accurate classification of experimental samples. However, despite the ...
