Introduction Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) is a resonant optical phenomenon arising at the interface between a dielectric and a metal, enabling the detection of minute changes in refractive index. Over the past few decades, SPR has become foundational to numerous sensing technologies, particularly in biosensing and chemical detection. The sensitivity and specificity of SPR sensors […]
Introduction Water is arguably the most vital resource on Earth, yet its contamination has escalated into a global concern that continues to challenge scientists, regulators, and industries alike. Emerging contaminants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), microplastics, and a host of chemical pollutants now pervade freshwater systems, oceans, and even drinking water supplies. The […]
Introduction Solid-state batteries (SSBs) represent a major technological shift in energy storage, particularly when compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries. The fundamental difference lies in the replacement of the liquid electrolyte with a solid-state counterpart, which offers improved energy density, safety, and longevity. As demand grows in sectors like electric vehicles (EVs), consumer electronics, and renewable […]
Introduction The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the field of physics has emerged as one of the most promising and transformative developments in recent scientific history. No longer confined to optimizing experiments or crunching numbers, AI systems are now actively contributing to hypothesis generation, simulation, data interpretation, and even the formulation of physical laws. […]
Introduction The concept of a “digital twin of the heart” represents a remarkable convergence of computational modeling, artificial intelligence, and cardiovascular medicine. At its core, it is a dynamic, data-driven virtual replica of an individual’s heart, continuously updated in real time with personalized medical data. This technology promises to transform cardiology by offering precise simulations […]
Introduction Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensors represent a vital class of label-free biosensors that are fundamentally transforming real-time molecular detection. Relying on the interaction of light with metal surfaces to generate plasmons—coherent electron oscillations at the interface—SPR systems detect changes in the refractive index near the sensor surface, typically induced by biomolecular interactions. This optical […]
Introduction The increasingly intertwined nature of physical systems in modern engineering and scientific endeavors has rendered traditional single-physics approaches insufficient. As systems grow more complex—across automotive, aerospace, biomedical, and energy domains—the need to accurately simulate interactions between various physical phenomena has become essential. This is where multiphysics simulation steps in. Multiphysics simulation refers to the […]
Introduction The confluence of microfluidic technology and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing represents a pivotal advancement in the evolution of miniaturized analytical systems. Historically, SPR sensors—while extremely sensitive to refractive index changes at the nanoscale—have been encumbered by operational limitations. These include reliance on manual sample delivery, low multiplexing throughput, and often bulky system architecture. […]
Introduction Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has become an indispensable tool in the simulation and modeling of semiconductor devices. As these devices grow increasingly complex in terms of geometry, materials, and operating conditions, traditional analytical approaches no longer suffice for accurate modeling. FEA offers a numerical method for solving complex physical problems by discretizing the geometry […]
Introduction Nanoscience, as an academic discipline, represents one of the most dynamic intersections of modern scientific inquiry, bringing together physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering to study and manipulate matter at the nanometer scale. With advances in nanotechnology shaping industries from medicine to renewable energy, higher education institutions are increasingly tasked with preparing the next generation […]
