UrduMetasurfaces, ultra-thin films of nanostructures, hold immense promise for manipulating light with unprecedented control. However, their full potential hinges on overcoming the challenge of crafting these intricate patterns at large scales and high resolutions. This review explores the current nanofabrication techniques, including maskless and masked lithography, exploring their strengths and limitations. By understanding these constraints, we can pave the way for advanced nanophotonic applications powered by these light-bending marvels.

Steve Maren to lead Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology
Steve Maren, a neuroscientist who studies the neurobiology of emotional learning and memory, will become the next director of the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
Optical Imager Captures Amplitude and Phase Information without Digital Processing
UCLA researchers introduced an all-optical complex field imager that captures both amplitude and phase information of optical fields using an intensity-based sensor array. This device employs optimized diffractive surfaces to eliminate the need for digital processing in conventional complex imaging techniques, improving imaging speed and reducing computational demand.
NIH launches intramural bioengineering center to foster technology collaboration across the agency
NIBIB has established the Center for Biomedical Engineering Technology Acceleration—BETA Center, a new intramural research program to solve a range of medicine’s most pressing problems. The BETA Center will serve the wider NIH intramural research program as a biotechnology resource and catalyst for NIH research discoveries.
Imaging method predicts how well stem cells can differentiate into cardiac muscle cells
Morgridge researchers developed an imaging technique that can predict the efficiency of cardiac muscle cell differentiation from stem cells as a method of quality control for potential regenerative therapies.
Study finds risk of leukemia higher than expected in children with Down syndrome
The risk of childhood leukemia among kids with Down syndrome is higher than predicted, according to a new study led by UC Davis and UC San Francisco researchers. Early diagnosis remains critical.
NIH harnesses AI for COVID-19 diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring
NIH has launched an ambitious effort to use artificial intelligence, computation, and medical imaging to enable early disease detection, inform successful treatment strategies, and predict individual disease outcomes of COVID-19.
