Abstract

Inspired by the hair of blue tarantulas, B.-K. Hsiung and co-workers made a highly periodic structural-colored material that shows consistent color from all viewing directions in article number 1600599. This finding overturns the conventional wisdom that non-iridescent color cannot be produced by long-range order photonic structures, opening new potential to mass produce new structural colors.
