Published in 2024 at "Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics"

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6463/ad3bc4

Abstract: The vibration theory of olfaction, which explains it as the sensing of odorant molecules by their vibrational energies through inelastic electron tunnelling spectroscopy (IETS) has inspired olfactory sensor ideas. However, this theory has been presumed… read more here.
