The project focuses on creating artificial iridocytes, inspired by marine life, to produce vibrant colors through self-organizing block copolymers. By manipulating particle shapes and arrangements, the aim is to develop dynamic coatings for applications in inks, paints, and displays that are environmentally friendly.
Visual appearance (e.g. vibrant colouration) is important for communication in Nature. A particularly interesting example is the aggregates of reflector cells, or so-called "iridocytes", found in marine creatures.
Iridocytes are combined in their skin to produce a wide variety of colour effects; depending on their individual properties and spatial arrangement, they can show intense colours when all iridocytes have same periodicity, or a bright white, when the optical response from differently co…
