Anyways the real "supermaterials" you should be using in scifi are superalloy steels, anisotropic nanostructured composites, ultra-high-molecular-weight polymers, and geopolymer ceramics/cements

Researchers at Kobe University created a nanostructured coating that creates vivid, glossy colors.
The coating provides a uniform and long-lasting color that is unaffected by the protective layers typically used for cars, planes and architectural structures. https://bit.ly/3UOIx2P 💡 ⚛️ 🧪

Nanostructured antireflective coating for gallium arsenide solar cells
A Spanish research team demonstrated a broadband antireflective coating for gallium arsenide solar cells. Based on thermally oxidized gallium nanoparticles, the nanostructured coating reduced reflectance by 30% across the solar spectrum, and increased solar cell performance by 10%.
