Morpho Butterfl y-Inspired Nanostructures
Tropical Morpho butterfl ies are known for their iridescence. [ 1 ] Extensive research has been dedicated to analyzing the nanoscale architecture of Morpho butterfl y wings to understand their brilliant blue or white–purple iridescence The wing scales of Morpho butterfl ies contain 3D nanostructures that produce blue iridescent colors. Incident light is diffracted from multilayered nanostructur...
متن کاملNanostructures and Bio-inspired Computer Engineering
Nanoelectronics is the development of electronic devices with dimensions between one and ten nanometers. If Moore’s law continues to hold, it could be possible to construct Avogadro Computer, i.e. an architecture that efficiently employs 10 elements to perform computation, sometimes about 2020 [3]. Shorter-time prediction says that chips will contain 10 transistors and will operate at 10-15 GHz...
متن کاملBio-inspired fabrication of antireflection nanostructures by replicating fly eyes.
In this study, we examined the fine structure of the compound eyes of a household fly and precisely replicated its entire structure using a low-temperature atomic layer deposition technique. The surface of the fly eye is found to be covered by highly packed protuberances, which potentially increases visual efficiency through increased photon capture for a given stimulus. The alumina replica was...
متن کاملSuperductile, Wavy Silica Nanostructures Inspired by Diatom Algae
Biology implements intriguing structural design principles that allow for attractive mechanical properties—such as high strength, toughness, and extensibility despite being made of weak and brittle constituents, as observed in biomineralized structures. For example, diatom algae contain nanoporous hierarchical silicified shells, called frustules, which provide mechanical protection from predato...
متن کاملBiologically inspired LED lens from cuticular nanostructures of firefly lantern.
Cuticular nanostructures found in insects effectively manage light for light polarization, structural color, or optical index matching within an ultrathin natural scale. These nanostructures are mainly dedicated to manage incoming light and recently inspired many imaging and display applications. A bioluminescent organ, such as a firefly lantern, helps to out-couple light from the body in a hig...
