Molecular mechanism of reflectin’s tunable biophotonic control: Opportunities and limitations for new optoelectronics

Discovery that reflectin proteins fill the dynamically tunable Bragg lamellae in the reflective skin cells of certain squids has prompted efforts to design new reflectin-inspired systems for dynamic photonics. But new insights into the actual role and mechanism of action of the reflectins constrain...
