Abstract

This presentation is part of the five part series of videos that explains the nanoHUB IGNITE 2021 Nanophotonics Challenge

The challenge asks contestants to use open-source EM simulation tools available on nanoHUB.org to mimic the blue morpho microstructure. Based on our understanding of the structural coloring of the blue morpho butterfly, contestants should use simulation tools to simulate a similar structure to understand the reflection spectrum and tune this optical effect.
