An imaging probe that fluoresces in the presence of a cancer-related enzyme has been used safely in humans. Beyond increasing a surgeon's ability to locate and remove all of a tumor on the first attempt, the technology could also help detect residual cancers following treatment.

A novel architecture for in-line polarimeters enables monolithic, on-chip integration of polarization sensors for applications as varied as drug design and telecommunications. The device reduces the complexity and size of standard polarimeters by using a 2D metasurface covered with a thin array of metallic antennas, smaller than a wavelength of light, embedded in a polymer film.
