PRINCETON, New Jersey, Dec. 22 (TNSJou) -- The High Meadows Environmental Institute issued the following news:
The iridescent shimmer that makes birds such as peacocks and hummingbirds so striking is rooted in a natural nanostructure so complex that people are only just beginning to replicate it technologically. The secret to how birds produce these brilliant colors lies in a key feature of the feather's nanoscale design, according to a study led by Princeton University researc . . .
