Beyond Vision Restoration: Broadband Retinal Nanoprosthetics with Tellurium Nanowire Networks.

Retinal degenerative disorders pose critical challenges for vision restoration, with traditional prosthetics limited by spectral sensitivity and invasive surgeries. In recent work published in , revolutionary tellurium nanowire networks converted broadband visible to near-infrared-II (up to 1,550 nm) light into electrical signals without external bias, restoring functional vision in blind animal models.
