What is it about?

Copper is a noble metal that due to its optical properties reflects a reddish color. However, if copper is split in very thin films separated by layers of lossless dielectric materials, such as silicon dioxide, many colors can be created, including blue.

Why is it important?

Color filters based on metallic nanostructures introduce an alternative to obtain colors with improved saturation and brightness.
