Design of the photonic structure that traps two photons inside. The photons move along the horizontal direction, each one along the arm of the cross. The holes are positioned so that the two photons are captured at the center point where the two arms of the cross cross. The blue and red curves represent the intensity of the electric fields of the corresponding photons. The photons react due to the non-linearity of the crystal that forms the cross.

Differences in the cellular environment (acidity and metabolism) affect the solubility of metal oxides, in the present example copper oxide (CuO). The researchers hypothesized that plating the oxide with iron atoms could provide a therapeutic window to fight cancer. This means a release rate that is fast enough to target the cancer cells, but one that slows down significantly in healthy cells.
