(FECYT - Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology) A team of researchers from the State University of Pennsylvania and the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid have developed a technique to replicate biological structures, such as butterfly wings, on a nano scale.
The resulting biomaterial could be used to make optically active structures, such as optical diffusers for solar panels.
