Imitating natural rod or cone cells in human eyes inspires a novel biomimetic design of filter‐free RGB color sensing photodetectors. A radial tandem junction super‐rod structure is developed in article number 1700390 by Junzhuan Wang, Linwei Yu, Yi Shi, and co‐workers that consists of coaxially stacking hydrogenated amorphous silicon PIN junctions upon silicon nanowires, resembling to the retinal cells in terms of both geometry and dimensions.
