During the past decade, three dimensional (3D) sub-micrometer structures have attracted considerable attention for optical applications. These 3D subwavelength metallic structures are, however, difficult to prepare. By contrast, the 3D superstructures of butterfly wing scales, with more than 175 000 morphologies, are efficiently engineered by nature. Natural butterfly wing scales feature 3D sub-micrometer structures that are superior to many human designs in terms of structural complexity, reproducibility, and cost. Such natural wealth offers a versatile chemical route via the replication of these structures into functional metals. A single versatile chemical route can be used to produce butterfly scales in seven different metals. These synthesized structures have the potential for catalytic (Au, Pt, Pd), thermal (Ag, Au, Cu), electrical (Au, Cu, Ag), magnetic (Co, Ni), and optical (Au, Ag, Cu) applications. Plasmon-active Au, Cu, Ag butterfly scales have exhibited excellent properties in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The Au scales as SERS substrates have ten times the analyte detection sensitivity and are one-tenth the cost of their human-designed commercial counterparts (KlariteTM). Preliminary mechanisms of these surface-enhancement phenomena are also reviewed.SpringerBriefs in Materials,2192-1091Optical materialsElectronic materialsLasersPhotonicsBiotechnologyNanotechnologyMaterials scienceMaterials—SurfacesThin filmsOptical and Electronic Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000Optics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Deviceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030Microengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12040Nanotechnology and Microengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T18000Characterization and Evaluation of Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z17000Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Filmshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z19000Optical materials.Electronic materials.Lasers.Photonics.Biotechnology.Nanotechnology.Materials science.Materials—Surfaces.Thin films.Optical and Electronic Materials.Optics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices.Microengineering.Nanotechnology and Microengineering.Characterization and Evaluation of Materials.Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films.620.11620.11295620.11297620.44Gu Jiajunauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut994065Zhang Diauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autTan Yongwenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298622603321Metallic Butterfly Wing Scales2276641UNINA
