Sensitive optical biosensors for unlabeled targets: a review.

TLDR
This article reviews the recent progress in optical biosensors that use the label-free detection protocol, in which biomolecules are unlabeled or unmodified, and are detected in their natural forms, and focuses on the optical biosENSors that utilize the refractive index change as the sensing transduction signal.

Loss-induced suppression and revival of lasing.

TL;DR: Overturning conventional wisdom that loss is bad and should be minimized, Peng et al. show that carefully tweaking the coupling strength between the various components of a coupled optical system can actually result in an enhancement of the optical properties by adding more loss into the system.
