The wonderful iridescence in butterflies is a result of the multiple scattering and diffraction of light from periodic nano-structured elements within the wing of the insect. These structures are now generically termed photonic crystals akin to regular crystals where the atoms are located on a periodic lattice. Today using advanced technology we can engineer two-dimensional periodic structures in a semiconductor layer to achieve similar effects though with much more control and function. Due …
