Keywords:nanostructure, antibacterial property

We focused on a cicada wing which has superhydrophobic surface with antireflection to the light. In addition, antibacterial property was found in the cicada wing. We mimicked nanopillars on the cicada (Cryptotympana facialis) wing by using bottom up process such as a metal assisted etching. In addition, we show their antibacterial property in this report.
