Paper Abstract
Diatom algae are single-celled, photosynthetic organisms with a cell wall called a frustule—a periodically patterned
nano-structure made of silica. Throughout the last decade, diatom frustules have been studied for their potential uses as
photonic crystals and biomimetic templates for artificially developed metamaterials. A MATLAB program
characterizing their pore structure as a function of angle was developed, potentially giving insight into how their
geometric characteristics determine their optical properties.
