DGIST research team led by Professor CheolGi Kim has developed a biosensor platform which has 20 times faster detection capability than the existing biosensors using magnetic patterns resembling a spider web. The sensing capability of a biosensor is determined by the resolution of the sensor and the movement and reaction rate of molecules. Many research…
Color-Control Technology Uses Candy Light-Emitting Principle
The research team noted that blue light is emitted when wintergreen-flavored candy (ex. Lifesavers) is bitten or smashed. In general, it is known that mechanoluminescence in the ultraviolet region is generated when the sugar component in the candy is broken. Natural vegetable oil is a material that generates a blue color by absorbing ultraviolet, thus…
