The image displays a flexible surface plasmon resonance (SPR)‐based waveguide sensor prepared by directly imprinting metal nanoparticles onto flexible plates, as presented by H.‐L. Chen et al. on page 1742 . The metal nanoparticles could scatter the evanescent wave and the guiding mode waves from the SPR‐based waveguide simultaneously. The scattering signal underwent a distinguishable red‐shift when the target molecules bound to the particles.
