Manufacture of artificial retinas. Technician using an electron microscope to check the structure of electrochemical sensors being designed for use as artificial retinas. The retinas contain a semiconductor film made from diamonds. Diamonds are used as they are the only known inert material that is also a semiconductor, and it is this property that makes them suitable for use in and around biological systems.
