Job description

thumb|alt=Example alt text|Sparkling blue irradiance of Morpho butterfly due to light interaction with Christmas tree like nanostructures. I have been inspecting the optical active nanostructures on biomimic butterfly scales theoretically using FEM simulation and high resolution optical microscopy. Meantime, I am working on the fabrication of the scales to mimic all possible features of original butterly structures.
