Did you know that there is a strange state of matter in the eyes of a chicken called disordered hyperuniformity?
This means that it behaves both like a solid and a liquid at the same time.
This adaptation arises because light-detecting substances need to be squeezed into a single layer of tissue. Since these structures are of different sizes but need to be positioned in a relatively organised way, disordered hyperuniformity offers the ideal arrangement for the chicken’s eyes to function.
Knowing this could help inventors develop light detectors that are sensitive to only certain wavelengths of light.
