Abstract

Nano structuring of metallic surfaces shows surface colores unusual for a given material. This study presents an overview of possible approaches to achieve desirable color changes. The nano structured relief structures prepared by means of electron beam lithography process are presented. Optical design and simulation of optical properties, data preparation for e-beam patterning, parameters of the writing process, and technological issues are presented in detail. Finally, real examples of structures that exhibit surface color changes are presented and discussed.

Keywords: nanostructures, structural color, metallic surface, e-beam lithography
