Non-diffracting light in nature: Anomalously reflected self-healing Bessel beams from jewel scarabs
We report a study of spatial light modulation in the photonic structure of jewel scarabs, revealing the interplay of the polarization and phase control of light, which is not possible with the current optical technology. Phase measurements performed on jewel scarabs demonstrate that the polarization...
