Scientists at Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU)
with colleagues from Russia, Japan, and Australia have developed a
multi-purpose sensor based on a specially designed gold film, the
surface of which contains millions of parabolic nanoantennas
produced by femtosecond laser printing. The sensor identifies
molecules at trace concentrations, detecting them in liquid and gas
environments. It can be easily adjusted to provide different
modalities, including biological studies, medical and security
tasks. The related research is published in
Nanomaterials.
