Researchers developed a color-changing material that alters both surface texture and appearance in seconds, inspired by ...
Many home landscapes burst with color in early summer, only to fade into a flat, uninspiring green by midseason or become visually empty once flowers disappear. This often happens because gardeners ...
The Stanford team created a metasurface from a polymer previously used in solar panels and printable electronics. They found ...
To control color, the team sandwiched the polymer between two gold films. Light bounces off these films and interferes in ...
