Modifying the anti-wetting property of butterfly wings and water strider legs by atomic layer deposition coating: surface materials versus geometry.

TL;DR: This work applies an atomic layer deposition technique to coat the surfaces of both butterfly wings and water strider legs with a uniform 30 nm thick hydrophilic Al(2)O(3) film, and suggests that the super-hydrophobic property of the water striders is due to the special shape of the long inclining spindly cone-shaped setae at the surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural colors from Morpho peleides butterfly wing scales

TL;DR: In this paper, a male Morpho peleides butterfly wing is decorated by two types of scales, cover and ground scales, and the optical properties of each type of scales in conjunction with the structural information provided by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy and computer simulation are studied.

Stretchable electronic systems with fluid containment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an approach to provide electronic systems, including device arrays, comprising functional devices and/or device component(s) at least partially enclosed via one or more fluid containment chambers.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Biomimetic Soft Lens Controlled by Electrooculographic Signal

TL;DR: In this paper, a human-machine interface is developed to use electrooculographic signals generated by eye movements to control the motions and the change of focal length of a biomimetic soft lens.
