🎨 Ink with ZERO color that prints vivid images — and they never fade.

Kobe University made nanoparticle ink that creates color through physics, not dyes.

They printed a peacock using the same principle that colors real peacock feathers.

Glenna Drisko talking to her audience at MPICI

Glenna Drisko (@icmcb.bsky.social) lit up the room, sharing insights from her @erc.europa.eu -funded project, "Scatter".

She showed a bottom-up route to silicon #nanomaterials (tunable size/shape/ #SurfaceChemistry) and how to tailor #silica/#titania for #StructuralColor.

Novel nanostructures in blue sharks reveal their remarkable potential for dynamic color-change New research into the anatomy of blue sharks (Prionace glauca) reveals a unique nanostructure in their skin that produces their iconic blue coloration, but intriguingly, also suggests a potential capa...

We’re thrilled to host guest scientist Dr. Viktoriia Kamska, whose research on blue sharks' #structuralColor reveals their potential for dynamic color-change 🦈—and promises ripple effects far beyond the world of sharks.
