Scientists in the US have made the first artificial eye using 3D polymer structures. The eye, which is made from individual "ommatidia" -- or single lenses -- arranged in a dome shape, is similar in ...

A team of scientists from Stanford University has discovered a method of constructing perovskite solar cells with enhanced durability by taking inspiration from the honeycomb structure of insect eyes.

(Nanowerk News) The compound eyes found in insects and some sea creatures are marvels of evolution. There, thousands of lenses work together to provide sophisticated information without the need for a ...

Packing tiny solar cells together, like micro-lenses in the compound eye of an insect, could help scientists overcome a major roadblock to the development of perovskite photovoltaics. Packing tiny ...

The complex optical principles involved in insect vision have become increasingly attractive to developers, who recognize that lenses and sensors based on compound eyes could exhibit specialized ...

Single lens eyes, like those in humans and many other animals, can create sharp images, but the compound eyes of insects and crustaceans have an edge when it comes to peripheral vision, light ...

3D polymer structures are packed together to create an artificial eye. Scientists in the US have made the first artificial eye using 3D polymer structures. The eye, which is made from individual ...
