The Incredible, Edible Optic
MEDFORD, Mass., Aug. 11, 2008 -- Sophisticated optical devices currently under development could allow you to safely eat that piece of cake and the sensor, too. Using fibers from silkworms to develop platform devices, scientists at Tufts University's School of Engineering demonstrated for the first time that it is possible to design "living" optical elements that could enable a new class of sensors. These sensors would combine sophisticated nanoscale optics with biological readout functions and would be biocompatable and...
