A metamaterial‐based sensor composed of thin layers of metal and polymer is deposited on a highly ordered porous alumina membrane by I. Aharonovich and co‐workers. On page 750, this device is shown to be capable of sensing various liquids and biomolecules with sensitivities approaching 5000 nanometers per refractive index unit.
