They are associated with large local electric fields that can be harnessed for ultrasensitive detection and energy applications. (pnnl.gov)
Later this year, European partners of the LIGO collaboration plan to restart their revamped gravity wave observatory, Advanced Virgo, near Pisa, Italy, providing a crucial third ultrasensitive detector for pinpointing gravity wave sources. (sciencenews.org)
The finding, reported in today's issue of Science, could someday lead to ultrasensitive methods for screening potential drugs or fragments of pathogens in the blood and other bodily fluids. (sciencemag.org)
