Dynamic plasmonic colour display

We demonstrate a dynamic plasmonic colour display technique based on catalytic magnesium metasurfaces. Controlled hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of the constituent magnesium nanoparticles, which serve as dynamic pixels, allow for plasmonic colour tuning, erasing, and restoring.
