A strange landscape with an even stranger sky. This is a microscope view of the edge of a smooth chunk of silicon, coated with a thin clear plasticy layer of photoresist.  Just like the colors in a soap bubble, this colorless thin layer produces rainbow colors due to the wave

Light in a circular cavity makes a variety of standing wave patterns, some of which look like flowers, wagon wheels, or even tie-fighter spaceships. These images are from my simulations of the light in the cavities of nanolasers - each pattern is called a mode, and the smaller the laser,

There aren’t any dyes or pigments in this photo - all this color is due to the wave nature of light.  Thin transparent films produce rainbows, when light waves bouncing off the top and the bottom of the film interfere with each other on the way back.   It’s
