The detection of nanoscale objects is crucial in applications such as biomedical diagnostics and environmental monitoring. In article number 1800262 , Qinghai Song, Yun‐Feng Xiao, and co‐workers present an on‐chip dense waveguide sensor, which pushes the detection limit of single particles down to 100 nm in size and significantly decreases the sample consumption volumes.
