How non-iridescent colors are generated by quasi-ordered structures of bird feathers
Heeso Noh, Seng Fatt Liew, Vinodkumar Saranathan +4
We investigated the mechanism of structural coloration by quasi-ordered nanostructures in bird feather barbs. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data reveal the structures are iso…
Double scattering of light from biophotonic nanostructures with short-range order
Heeso Noh, Seng Fatt Liew, Vinodkumar Saranathan +4
We investigate the physical mechanism for color production by isotropic nanostructures with short-range order in bird feather barbs. While the primary peak in optical scattering sp…
Biomimetic isotropic nanostructures for structural coloration
Jason D. Forster, Heeso Noh, Seng Fatt Liew +9
We describe the self-assembly of biomimetic isotropic films which display structural color amenable to potential applications in coatings. Isotropic structures can produce color if…
Five-Fold Reduction of Lasing Threshold near the First -Pseudogap of ZnO Inverse Opals
Michael Scharrer, Heeso Noh, Xiaohua Wu +4
We report room temperature lasing in ZnO inverse opal photonic crystals in the near-ultraviolet (UV) frequency. We observe random lasing due to disorder in the structures when the…
