Flash drug release from nanoparticles accumulated in the targeted blood vessels facilitates the tumour treatment

Achieving the delivery of drugs into the centre of solid tumours is a challenge due to the tumour micro-environment. Here, the authors propose a system for using the rapid release of large quantities of drug inside tumour microcapillaries for the gradient-driven diffusion of drugs into solid tumours.

Single-nanocrystal sensitivity achieved by enhanced upconversion luminescence

Bright luminescence from upconversion nanocrystals can be achieved by combining high-excitation irradiance with a high activator concentration. The enhanced brightness allows a single nanocrystal to be tracked, which can be used in bioimaging applications, for example.

Dual-channel spontaneous emission of quantum dots in magnetic metamaterials

Understanding the distribution of energy between electric and magnetic channels of a metamaterial remains elusive. Decker et al.study the emission of quantum dots into these channels for a split-ring-resonator metamaterial and differentiate the fundamental behaviour of the two modes.
