iridescence

Iridescence

Goniochromism is referred to when a surface appears to change color according to the angle at which it is viewed or the angle at which it is illuminated. When the colors are those of the rainbow, it is the irisation. Iridescence is very widespread in Nature; many beetles and butterflies, fish and birds owe their magnificent colors to this phenomenon. On parle de goniochromisme quand une surface paraît changer de couleur selon l'angle sous lequel on la regarde ou selon l'angle selon lequel elle est éclairée. Lorsque les couleurs sont celles de l'arc-en-ciel, il s'agit de l'irisation. L'iridescence est très répandue dans la Nature ; de nombreux coléoptères et papillons, poissons et oiseaux doivent leurs magnifiques couleurs à ce phénomène.
