Biomimetic design of iridescent insect cuticles with tailored, self-organized cholesteric patterns
Replicating biological patterns is promising for designing materials with multifaceted properties. Twisted cholesteric liquid crystal patterns are found in the iridescent tessellated cuticles of many insects and a few fruits. Their accurate replication is extremely difficult since discontinuous patt...
