Photonic Structures Inspired by Nature

by Mathias Kolle ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
Unlike most natural colours that are based on pigment absorption, the striking iridescent and intense colouration of many butterflies, birds or beetles stems from the interaction of light with periodic sub-micrometer surface or volume patterns, so called “photonic structures”. These “structural colours” are increasingly well understood, but they are difficult to create artificially and exploit ... Read more
