Selection of the intrinsic polarization properties of animal optical materials creates enhanced structural reflectivity and camouflage
Many animals use structural coloration to create bright and conspicuous visual signals. Selection of the size and shape of the optical structures animals use defines both the colour and intensity of the light reflected. The material used to create these reflectors is also important; however, animals...
