Angular sensitivity of blowfly photoreceptors: intracellular measurements and wave-optical predictions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The angular sensitivity of blowfly photoreceptors was measured in detail at wavelengths λ = 355, 494 and 588 nm. The measured curves often showed numerous sidebands, indicating the importance of diffraction by the facet lens.
