Abstract: “The nanopattern on the surface of Clanger cicada wings show the first example of a new class of biomaterials that can kill bacteria on contact based solely on their physical surface structure. The wings provide a model for the development of functional surfaces that possess increased resistance to bacterial contamination and infection.”
