Hierarchical Opals: Biomaterial‐Based “Structured Opals” with Programmable Combination of Diffractive Optical Elements and Photonic Bandgap Effects (Adv. Mater. 5/2019)
Source abstract
Abstract
Fiorenzo G. Omenetto and co-workers present a scanning electron microscopy image of a silk-based inverse-opal lattice in the shape of a diffraction grating. This optical element allows simultaneous control over the reflection (through the photonic bandgap) and the transmission (through 2D diffractive structuring) of light with the additional utility of being constituted by a biocompatible, implantable, edible commodity textile material, as described in article number 1805312.
