The Bioinspired Photonics program, a grant offered by DARPA, seeks proposals for the design and fabrication of innovative structured materials. The primary goal of this initiative is to create materials that can demonstrate either dynamic tunability of their optical response or possess advanced sensing capabilities for organic volatiles. This will be accomplished through the development and application of novel bioinspired photonic structures. The research is specifically focused on materials and structures capable of operating effectively in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral ranges. This grant aims to foster breakthroughs in material science, leading to new generations of optical devices and chemical sensors with high performance and adaptable functionalities.
