Simulation of three dimensional diffraction patterns as aid of structural analysis for complex epitaxial films by Yajun Tao, Erhao Peng, Qingyu He, Xinyan Chen, Jiangxiao Li, Yuting Wang, Yongqi Dong, Zhe Sun, Zhenlin Luo

“…Further, systematic simulations of 3D-RSM patterns for epitaxial films belonging to every of the seven crystalline symmetries were performed and exhibited, assuming the films are grown on a (001)-oriented cubic substrate. This work sheds light on more effective data analysis of 3D-RSM, i.e., more effective structural characterization of complex epitaxial films.…”

Iridescent structural coloration in a crested Cretaceous enantiornithine bird from the Jehol Biota by Zhiheng Li, Jinsheng Hu, Thomas A Stidham, Mao Ye, Min Wang, Yanhong Pan, Tao Zhao, Jingshu Li, Zhonghe Zhou, Julia A Clarke

“…The shape and density of these melanosomes also may have further increased the feather’s structural strength. This occurrence on a likely male individual is highly suggestive of both a signaling function of the iridescent crest and a potential behavioral role in adjusting the angle of light incidence to control the display of this iridescent structural coloration.…”
