Cicada wings inspire antireflective surfaces

A team of researchers has used the shape of cicada wings as a template to create antireflective structures fabricated with one of the most intriguing semiconductor materials, titanium dioxide. The antireflective structures they produced are capable of suppressing visible light – 450 to 750 nanometers – at different angles of incidence.
