Fluorescent nanodiamonds (FNDs) with nitrogen-vacancy centers enable optical readout of local changes in electric and magnetic fields. In article 1803406, Petr Cigler and co-workers report biomimetic architectures on FNDs based on supported lipid bilayers. They function as “molecular modular bricks”, tailoring the interface of particles for specific applications and transducing the changes in local environment to nitrogen-vacancy centers with remarkable sensitivity.
