Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have built a very simple nanoantenna that directs red and blue colours in opposite directions, even though the antenna is smaller than the wavelength of light. The findings published in the online journal Nature Communications this week can lead to optical nanosensors being able to detect very low concentrations of gases or biomolecules.
