New Nanoscale Optical Sensors Can Measure Magnitude of Force, Claims Study

Columbia University researchers have developed nanoscale optical sensors capable of measuring forces with unmatched sensitivity and range. These sensors, which rely on light for remote operation, represent a significant innovation in force measurement technology. By employing the photon-avalanching effect in lanthanide-doped nanocrystals, the sensors achieve 100x grea...
