Article
Full-text available
Considering light transport in disordered media, the medium is often treated as an effective medium requiring accurate evaluation of an effective refractive index. Because of its simplicity, the Maxwell-Garnett (MG) mixing rule is widely used, although its restriction to particles much smaller than the wavelength is rarely satisfied. Using 3D finit...

Novel bifunctional cellulose diacetate derivatives were synthesized in order to achieve bio-based photoresists, which can be structured by two-photon absorption via direct laser writing (DLW) without the need to use a photoinitiator. Therefore, cellulose diacetate is functionalized with thiol moieties and olefinic or methacrylic side groups enablin...
Article
Full-text available
The great flexibility of direct laser writing (DLW) arises from the possibility to fabricate precise three‐dimensional structures on very small scales as well as the broad range of applicable materials. However, there is still a vast number of promising materials, which are currently inaccessible requiring the continuous development of novel photor...

In article number 2200700, Ruben C. R. Pompe, Dominic T. Meiers, and co‐workers investigate coherent light scattering in ultra‐thin, brilliant white, low refractive index structures, such as the scales of Cyphochilus beetles. It is shown that leakage from resonant, closed scattering pathways is responsible for roughly one quarter of the total scatt...
Article
Full-text available
The brilliant white appearance of ultrathin scattering media with low refractive index contrast and the underlying radiative transport phenomena fascinate scientists for more than a decade. Examples of such systems are the scales of beetles of the genus Cyphochilus, photonic network structures or disordered Bragg stacks (DBS). While previous studie...

Article
Full-text available
The scales of white beetles strongly scatter light within a thin disordered network of chitin filaments. There is no comparable artificial material achieving such a high scattering strength within a thin layer of low refractive index material. Several analyses investigated the scattering but could not explain the underlying concept. Here a model sy...
