Inspired by the Papilio blumei butterfly, quantum-dot (QD) film coupled with micro-concavity array (MCA) films is proposed in this Letter to enhance color conversion efficiency (CCE) of QD-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The diameter, aspect ratio, and pitch of the MCA are optimized in the optical simulations. Both the simulation and experimental results show that the scattering and double reflection effects are the key to the CCE improvement of QD films. The results show that the CCEs are increased from 19.98% to 21.59% and 21.78% (350 mA) for single-sided microstructured QD film and double-sided microstructured QD film configurations, respectively. Overall, the MCA film is a promising solution to enhance the CCE of QD-based LEDs.

Article Synopsis
- Butterfly wings have unique micro/nanostructures that create their bright colors and ability to reflect light, inspiring new technological developments.
- The Emerald Swallowtail butterfly’s wing scales exhibit striking colors due to their complex hierarchical structures, which current technologies struggle to replicate.
- This study presents a novel way to create artificial wing scales with simpler designs that still achieve vibrant colors and retroreflective properties, enabling applications in sensors and gas detection.

Silica and polystyrene spheres with a small size ratio (r = 0.005) form by sequential hanging drop self-assembly, a binary colloidal crystal through which calcination transforms in a silica-ordered concavity array. These arrays are capable of light Bragg diffraction and shape dependent optical phenomena, and they can be transformed into inverse-opal structures.
