Unique near‐field enhanced plasmonic‐magnetic bifunctional nanotubes are fabricated by D. L. Fan and co‐workers. Their plasmonic properties are investigated on page 4332 through both experimentation and theoretical modeling. By leveraging the bifunctionality, a nanotube can be precisely transported to a single living Chinese hamster ovary cell amidst many and reveal its membrane chemistry (lipid and protein) with SERS spectroscopy.
