Abstract
Microbially catalyzed corrosion of metals is a substantial economic concern. Aerobic microbes primarily enhance Fe0 oxidation through indirect mechanisms and their impact appears to be limited compared to anaerobic microbes. Several anaerobic mechanisms are known to accelerate Fe0 oxidation. Microbes can consume H2 abiotically generated from the oxidation of Fe0. Microbial H2 removal makes continued Fe0 oxidation more thermodynamically favorable. Extracellular hydrogenases further accelerate Fe0 oxidation. Organic electron shuttles such as flavins, phenazines, and possibly humic substances may replace H2 as the electron carrier between Fe0 and cells. Direct Fe0-to-microbe electron transfer is also possible. Which of these anaerobic mechanisms predominates in model pure culture isolates is typically poorly documented because of a lack of functional genetic studies. Microbial mechanisms for Fe0 oxidation may also apply to some other metals. An ultimate goal of microbial metal corrosion research is to develop molecular tools to diagnose the occurrence, mechanisms, and rates of metal corrosion to guide the implementation of the most effective mitigation strategies. A systems biology approach that includes innovative isolation and characterization methods, as well as functional genomic investigations, will be required in order to identify the diagnostic features to be gleaned from meta-omic analysis of corroding materials. A better understanding of microbial metal corrosion mechanisms is expected to lead to new corrosion mitigation strategies. The understanding of the corrosion microbiome is clearly in its infancy, but interdisciplinary electrochemical, microbiological, and molecular tools are available to make rapid progress in this field.

Abstract
Hydrophobic photonic crystals (PCs) has been increasingly appreciated as a promising functional material due to their distinct surface characteristic of structural color and hydrophobicity. However, it remains a challenge to fabricate hydrophobic PCs via a one-step process. Inspired by the development of high-performance waterborne coatings, we propose an easy-to-perform and high-efficiency strategy to construct hydrophobic building blocks (diameter of 221, 247, 276 and 305 nm), where the umbelli-form hydrophobic long chain (veova10 Cn > 9) was loaded onto polystyrene (PS) colloidal particles in situ. Taking advantage of the hydrophobic driving force between the colloidal particles, large-scale colloidal photonic crystals (CPCs) film with crack-free morphology was obtained efficiently. The derived CPCs exhibit robust mechanical stability, prominent hydrophobicity and excellent optical properties. In addition, the colloidal latex holds great potential toward PCs coatings on a variety of substrates (glass, plastic and steel) with excellent adhesiveness. Furthermore, we contrive to construct angle-independent structural color films and supraballs, and explore their application in quantum dots (QDs) fluorescence enhancement, which achieved an enhancement effect by more than eight times. From the standpoint of practical applications, we achieved the flexible high-brightness wearable light-emitting diode (LED) displays. This work will lay a foundation for the development of high-efficiency PCs building blocks, and indicate the direction for the meaningful application of CPCs.
