Microfluidic devices offer the potential to automate a wide variety of chemical and biological
operations that are applicable for diagnostic and therapeutic operations with higher …

Nature has developed high‐performance materials and structures over millions of years of
evolution and provides valuable sources of inspiration for the design of next‐generation …

In most animal species, vision is mediated by compound eyes, which offer lower resolution
than vertebrate single-lens eyes, but significantly larger fields of view with negligible …

The natural compound eye has received much attention in recent years due to its
remarkable properties, such as its large field of view (FOV), compact structure, and high …

The small field‐of‐view (FOV) limits the range of vision in various detecting/imaging devices
from biological microscopes to commercial cameras and military radar. To date, imaging …

The natural compound eye is a striking imaging device with a wealth of fascinating optical
features such as a wide field of view (FOV), low aberration, and high sensitivity. Dragonflies …

This study presents the manufacturing process of bioinspired compound (BIC) eyes. The
hierarchical eyes were accomplished by a combination of (i) modified laser swelling,(ii) air …

Planar and curved microlens arrays (MLAs) are the key components of miniaturized
microoptical systems. In order to meet the requirements for advanced and multipurpose …

Natural compound eyes provide the inspiration for developing artificial optical devices that
feature a large field of view (FOV). However, the imaging ability of artificial compound eyes …

We report a replication route to non-planar, three dimensional microlens arrays with an
antireflective surface nanopattern. Our methodology uses the surface topography of the …
