Because of color stems from the varying of different types of cone cells in the retina to different parts of the spectrum, colors may be defined and quantified by the degree to which they stim- ulate these cells. These physical or physiological quan- tifications of color, however, do not fully explain the Colored pencils psychophysical perception of color appearance. The science of color is sometimes called chromatics, , or simply color science. It includes the per- ception of color by the and brain, the origin of color in materials, in art, and the physics of electromagnetic radiation in the visible range (that is, what we commonly refer to simply as ).

These include some species of spiders, most marsupials, birds, reptiles, and many species of fish.

7 Structural color

Structural colors are colors caused by interference effects rather than by pigments. Color effects are produced when a material is scored with fine parallel lines, formed of one or more parallel thin layers, or otherwise composed of microstructures on the scale of the color’s wavelength. If the microstructures are spaced randomly, light of shorter wavelengths will be scattered preferentially to produce Tyndall effect colors: the blue of the sky (Rayleigh scat- Additive : adding red to green yields yellow; adding tering, caused by structures much smaller than the wave- all three primary colors together yields white. length of light, in this case air molecules), the luster of opals, and the blue of human irises. If the microstruc- tures are aligned in arrays, for example the array of pits in a CD, they behave as a diffraction grating: the grating re- flects different wavelengths in different directions due to interference phenomena, separating mixed “white” light into light of different wavelengths. If the structure is one or more thin layers then it will reflect some wavelengths and transmit others, depending on the layers’ thickness. Structural color is studied in the field of thin-film op- tics. A layman’s term that describes particularly the most ordered or the most changeable structural colors is . Structural color is responsible for the and of the feathers of many birds (the blue jay, for example), as well as certain butterfly wings and beetle shells. Variations in the pattern’s spacing often give rise to an iridescent effect, as seen in peacock feathers, soap bubbles, films of oil, and mother of pearl, because the re- flected color depends upon the viewing angle.
