We are able to observe a colour due to the interference of light from microstructures
composed of different refractive index materials that is comparable to the visible wavelength …

The diversity and vividness of structural colour in the natural world have been recognised as
far back as William Hooke in the 17th century. Whilst it is only recently that advances in the …

Structural colors enable the creation of a spectrum of nonfading colors without pigments,
potentially replacing toxic metal oxides and conjugated organic pigments. However …

There are many technical and industrial applications for colored pigments with nonfading
properties. The development of a low-cost, high-volume production method for nonfading …

Daytime radiative cooling is an innovative passive cooling technology to realize energy
saving and counter global warming. To fulfill the demand for aesthetic appearance and …

Colloidal crystals and glasses manipulate light propagation depending on their chemical
composition, particle morphology, and mesoscopic structure. This light–matter interaction …

Two distinct types of colloidal particle aggregated states exist in opal, namely, the colloidal
crystal and the colloidal amorphous array. Today, these aggregates can be artificially …

We report the preparation of thermally tunable hydrogels displaying angle‐independent
structural colors. The porous structures were formed with short‐range order using colloidal …

Structural color with wide viewing angles has enormous potential applications in pigment,
ink formulation, displays, and sensors. However, colors obtained from colloidal assemblies …

Inspired by structural colors in avian species, various synthetic strategies have been
developed to produce noniridescent, saturated colors using nanoparticle assemblies …
