Constructing Invisibility From Reflective Self-assembling Squid Protein
Cephalopods are so damn interesting:
A recent study into the biophysical properties of a highly reflective and self-organizing squid protein called reflectin will inform researchers about the process of “bottom-up” synthesis of nanoscale structures and could lead to the development of thin-film coatings for microstructured materials, bringing scientists one step closer to the development of an invisibility cloak.
