  • METHOD OF DIFFRACTION GRATING TRANSFER TO HAIR AND FIBERS
    Publication number: 20180049531
    Abstract: Provided is a method for treating a fiber, including: imparting a pattern from a diffraction grating onto a fiber surface. The pattern is capable of diffracting incident polychromatic light into one or more dispersed visible colors, the fiber is not coated and the pattern is imparted directly onto the surface of the fiber.
    Type: Application

  • HAIR TREATMENT PROCESS PROVIDING DISPERSED COLORS BY LIGHT DIFFRACTION
    Publication number: 20130081646
    Abstract: Hair was coated with polymer-containing fluid and then hot pressed to form a composite of hair and a polymer film imprinted with a nanopattern. Polychromatic light incident on the nanopattern is diffracted into dispersed colored light.

  • Reflective diffraction grating
    Patent number: 6583933
    Abstract: Reflective diffraction grating. A focused ion beam (FIB) micromilling apparatus is used to store color images in a durable medium by milling away portions of the surface of the medium to produce a reflective diffraction grating with blazed pits. The images are retrieved by exposing the surface of the grating to polychromatic light from a particular incident bearing and observing the light reflected by the surface from specified reception bearing.
    Type: Grant
