Diatom Cribellum‐Inspired Hierarchical Metamaterials: Unifying Perfect Absorption Toward Subwavelength Color Printing (Adv. Mater. 33/2024)

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Diatom Cribellum-Inspired Hierarchical Metamaterials The cribellum layer of diatom skeleton, termed frustule, features a hierarchical porous structure on the nanoscale. In article number 2403304 by Xin Zhang and co-workers, diatom cribellum inspired hierarchical metamaterials are presented to integrate the perfect absorption and subwavelength color printing. These diatom cribellum-inspired metamaterials offer a fresh perspective on multifunctional metamaterial design, promising scalability production by utilizing the frustule as a template for nanopatterning or bio-template synthesis.
