Optical Nanoantennas Set the Stage for a NEMS Lab-on-a-Chip Revolution

Newly developed tiny antennas, likened to spotlights on the nanoscale, offer the potential to measure food safety, identify pollutants in the air and even quickly diagnose and treat cancer, according to the Australian scientists who created them. In the Journal of Applied Physics, they describe these and other envisioned applications for their nanocubes in "laboratories-on-a-chip."
