Ultra-thin lenses that make infrared light visible- A team of physicists at ETH Zurich has created a tiny metalens that can half the wavelength of incident light.
- They have achieved this using a special metal-oxide lens material called lithium niobate and through nanoscale pattern, stamped into the material.
- Such metalenses could be used as a security feature on banknotes or in the fabrication of ultra-thin elements for cameras.

Scientific breakthrough: We can now halve the price of costly cancer drugThe demand for the widely used cancer drug Taxol is increasing, but it’s difficult and expensive to produce because it hasn’t been possible to do it biosynthetically. Until now, that is. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have cracked the last part of a code that science has struggled with for 30 years. The breakthrough could halve the price of the drug and make production far more sustainable.
