Hybrid Bio-Nanocomposites by Integrating Nanoscale Au in Butterfly Scales Colored by Photonic Nanoarchitectures

Plasmonic metallic nanoparticles, like Au, can be used to tune the optical properties of photonic nanoarchitectures occurring in butterfly wing scales possessing structural color. The effect of the nanoscale Au depends on the location and the amount deposited in the chitin-based photonic nanoarchite...
