  • ]. For instance, Farran et al. [21] characterized orientation-dependent photonic bandgaps in scales of gold-dust weevils and titania-based artificial mimics of these scales obtained from solgel replication, aiding in the production of customizable photonic bandgaps for novel optical materials.

Graphical Abstract
  • customizable photonic bandgaps that might be used in novel optical materials. Keywords: animal coloration; photonic crystal; polarization conversion; solgel replication; weevil; Introduction Animal coloration is produced by means of absorption, scattering, luminescence, and interference. The latter is
