The project aims to address fundamental questions regarding bioinspired artificial photoreceptors and neural-mimicking technologies that precisely mimic light capture abilities of photoreceptors, processing of retinal ganglion cells and functionalities in neurons. This is expected to generate new fundamental and applied knowledge in bioengineered optoelectronic systems. Expected outcomes of the project include new materials with tailored properties at an atomic level for dynamic control of current under different light stimulus wavelengths. This should provide significant benefits such as new advanced materials driven smart architectures that overcome limitations of solid-state systems for next generation of smart technologies.
