Abstract:Biological cells self-organize into living materials that uniquely blend structure with functionality and responsiveness to the environment. The integration of similar life-like features in man-made materials remains challenging, yet desirable to manufacture active, adaptive and autonomous systems. Here we show the self-organization of programmable random lasers from the reversible outof-equilibrium self-assembly of colloids. Random lasing originates from the optical amplification of light undergoing multiple … Show more
