Nanoscale cuticle mass density variations influenced by pigmentation in butterfly wing scales
Deepan Balakrishnan, Anupama Prakash, Benedikt J. Daurer +6
How pigment distribution influences the cuticle density within a microscopic butterfly wing scale, and how both impact each scale's final reflected color, remains unknown. We use p…
The height of chitinous ridges alone produces the entire structural colour palette
Hemant Kumar Raut, Qifeng Ruan, Cédric Finet +3
The colourful wings of butterflies result from the interaction between light and the intricate chitinous nanostructures on butterflies' scales. This study demonstrates that just by…
Cellular and Developmental Basis of Avian Structural Coloration
Vinodkumar Saranathan, Cédric Finet
Vivid structural colors in birds are a conspicuous and vital part of their phenotype. They are produced by a rich diversity of integumentary photonic nanostructures in skin and fea…
