Silver nanoprisms grown into structural colors by high power LEDs https://tube.loping.net/videos/watch/89fdc992-4d31-429b-9758-7ad40a345d87 How to chemically synthesize silver nanoparticles, then grow them into triangular nanoprisms with light from a variety of LEDs. Each color LED creates a different size nanoprism, which has its own characteristic color.
