Structural color due to guided-mode resonance in silicon-on-insulator irradiated by nanosecond laser pulses [PDF]
Science and Technology of Advanced MaterialsWe demonstrate structural color generation in silicon-on-insulator wafers using nanosecond laser irradiation. Laser-induced periodic surface structures on the thin Si film act as grating couplers, enabling optical resonances that produce bright ...

Mechanisms of color constancy [PDF]
Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 1986 We develop a model of how the visual system finds the colors of objects that have unknown shapes and positions. The model relies on mechanisms of light adaptation, coupled with eye movements, to recover three descriptors of surface reflectance that are represented in the signals of an achromatic mechanism and two color-opponent mechanisms.

Mechanism Underlying Color Variation in Calla Lily Spathes Based on Transcriptomic Analysis
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021 The calla lily (Zantedeschia hybrida) is a valued ornamental plant due to its unique shape and color variations. To determine the mechanisms responsible for color development in the calla lily spathe, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis of
