Structural colors arise from selective light interaction with (nano)structures, which give them advantages over pigmented colors such as resistance to fading and possibility to be fabricated out of traditional low-cost and non-toxic materials. Since the color arises from the photonic (nano)structures, different structural features can impact their photonic response and thus, their color. Therefore, the detailed characterization of their structural features is crucial for further improvement of structural colors. In this work, we present a detailed multi-scale structural characterization of ceramic-based photonic glasses by using a combination of high-resolution ptychographic X-ray computed tomography and small angle X-ray scattering. Our results uncover the structure-processing-properties’ relationships of such nanoparticles-based photonic glasses and point out to the need of a review of the structural features used in simulation models concomitantly with the need for further investigations by experimentalists, where we point out exactly which structural features need to be improved.
