This project investigates structural color in natural and bio-mimetic materials made from cellulose and chitin. By studying their assembly and optical response, it aims to uncover design principles and create low-cost, biodegradable photonic materials.
Structural colour arises from constructive interference of light that is reflected at interfaces within periodic arrays of transparent materials.
Their optical response is well understood and widely described in various biological organisms.
Despite the maturity of the research field, many important questions remain completely unsolved.In order to elucidate the design principles that underlie the development of such structures in nature, I aim to study the assembly and optical response of both n…
