Circularly polarized reflection from the scarab beetle Chalcothea smaragdina: light scattering by a dual photonic structure

Helicoidal architectures comprising various polysaccharides, such as chitin and cellulose, have been reported in biological systems. In some cases, these architectures exhibit stunning optical properties analogous to ordered cholesteric liquid crystal phases. In this work, we characterize the circul...
