Lab Generated Hues and Humanity’s Quest to “Harness Pure Color”

While searching for a topic for this week’s blog post, I came across this unique article which details a project at the University of California Berkeley to create a new hue of blue using quantum dots. The article also details the history of man’s attempt to capture and utilize the color blue, a difficult task given the color’s rarity in nature. The article is a super interesting and amusing read, and I would highly recommend it!
