The eyes of moths, which allow them to see well at night, are also covered with a water-repellent, anti-reflective coating that makes their eyes among the least reflective surfaces in nature. Mimicking the moth eye's microstructure, a team of researchers in Japan has created a new film for covering solar cells that can cut down on the amount of reflected light and help capture more power from the sun.
