Description
Copper aluminate particles that reveal hidden fingerprints are tested by Rameen Fatima and colleagues in 2026. Fingerprints anchor many crime inquiries. Prints lose contrast as they age. Tricky surfaces make them hard to see.
The particles were made by a low-cost sol-gel route. Prints were dusted on paper, ceramic, and wood. Smooth plastic, steel, and glass were also tried. Glass gave the strongest contrast in plain light. Ultraviolet light sharpened ridge detail further. Fine match features became visible under that light. Patterns stayed readable for up to thirty days. A cheap, steady powder option is the claim.
