Abstract
We report experimental and theoretical verification of the nature
and position of multiple interference points of visible light transmitted
through the valve of the centric diatom species Coscinodiscus granii.
Furthermore, by coupling the transmitted light into an optical fiber and
moving the diatom valve between constructive and destructive interference
points, an extinction ratio of 20 dB is shown
