Tailoring the angular and spectral reflectance characteristics of color-dynamic films by modifying their photonic texture and topcoat roughness by Blair, Andrew D.

“…The model is verified with data obtained by imaging the angular scattering distribution and spectroscopic analysis of four representative combinations of photonic texture and surface coat roughness. The findings presented in this thesis validate the hypothesis that controlling texture of the photonic film and roughness of its topcoat allows for tailoring the visual appearance of structurally colored materials. …”
