Learn more about the polymer film that can change color and texture when electron beams are applied.

To control color, the team sandwiched the polymer between two gold films. Light bounces off these films and interferes in ...

Stanford researchers have developed a flexible material that can quickly change its surface texture and colors, offering ...

A material that can switch its appearance, cephalopod-style, could have future applications in robotics or display technology ...

New octopus-inspired artificial skin mimics marine camouflage, enabling materials to transform in color and texture for ...

Researchers have developed a flexible material that can quickly change its surface texture and colors, offering potential ...

Synthetic cephalopod skin could be used in architecture and computer displays as well as background-matching subterfuge ...

Octopus and cuttlefish can change both the colour and texture of their skin in seconds, something no man made material has ...

The idea of boosting the performance of solar cells by coating them with a textured substrate is commonly used in silicon-based cells. The idea is to traps more light so that it bounces around inside ...
