Abstract
We present a dual-layer hafnium dioxide (HfO2) grating capable of full-color modulation in the visible spectrum by leveraging the magnetic dipole resonance induced by the lower-layer HfO2 grating, while the upper-layer HfO2 grating serves as a refractive index matching layer to effectively suppress high-order Mie resonances at shorter wavelengths. The HfO2/HfO2 grating exhibits a significantly larger distribution area in the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram compared to the HfO2 grating. Furthermore, the structural color saturation closely approximates that of monochromatic light. Under varying background refractive index environments, this structure consistently exhibits high-quality structural color. However, the hue of the structural color undergoes alterations. When the polarization angle is below 20°, the saturation of the acquired structural color remains remarkably consistent. However, exceeding 20° results in a significant degradation in the quality of the structural color. This study demonstrates the promising potential for diverse applications, encompassing fields such as imaging and displays.

Abstract
The orderly arrangement of nanomaterials’ tiny units at the nanometer-scale accounts for a substantial part of their remarkable properties. Maintaining this orderness and meanwhile endowing the nanomaterials with highly precise and free-designed 3D micro architectures will open an exciting prospect for various novel applications. In this paper, we developed a sacrificial-scaffold-mediated two-photon lithography (TPL) strategy that enables the fabrication of complex 3D colloidal crystal microstructures with orderly-arranged nanoparticles inside. We show that, with the help of a degradable hydrogel scaffold, the disturbance effect of the femtosecond laser to the nanoparticle self-assembling could be overcome. Therefore, hydrogel-state and solid-state colloidal crystal microstructures with diverse compositions, free-designed geometries and variable structural colors could be easily fabricated. This enables the possibility to create novel colloidal crystal microsensing systems that have not been achieved before. Colloidal crystals are widely applied in the fabrication of optoelectronic devices, but realizing freedom of design, such as in 3D printing, in colloidal crystal fabrication remains challenging. Here, the authors demonstrate a sacrificial-scaffold-mediated two-photon lithography strategy that enables the fabrication of complex 3D colloidal crystal microstructures with orderly arranged nanoparticles in the bulk.

Abstract
Different from the traditional concept that binary photonic crystals can only reproduce mixed colors due to the simple superposition of the photonic band gaps, precisely addressable "true colors" obtained from volume fraction deviation of binary photonic crystals with metastable structures are reported here. Inspired by the mussels' adhesion and longhorn beetles' photonic scales, a binary metastable amorphous photonic crystal was obtained by enhancing the driving forces and customizing the surface roughness of building blocks to regulate the thermodynamic and dynamic factors simultaneously. By controlling the volume fraction of two building blocks, the tunable photonic bandgap varies linearly in the visible region. Furthermore, the "true violet" that cannot be obtained by conventional color mixing is reproduced with the particular ultraviolet characteristics of red photonic pigment's metastable structures, which complement the palette effect of "true colors". Meanwhile, due to the self-adhesion and post-modification of building blocks, the stability of photonic pigments is further improved. The binary photonic pigments not only solve the dilemma of mixed colors, but also realize the tunability and multiplicity of "true colors", offering a new choice for the color palette of the world.

Abstract
The unique properties of yolk-shell or rattle-type particles make them promising candidates for applications ranging from switchable photonic crystals, to catalysts, to sensors. To realize many of these applications it is important to gain control over the dynamics of the core particle independently of the shell. HYPOTHESIS The core particle may be manipulated by an AC electric field with rich frequency-dependent behavior. EXPERIMENTS Here, we explore the frequency-dependent dynamic electrophoretic mobility of a charged core particle within a charged, porous shell in AC electric fields both experimentally using liquid-phase electron microscopy and numerically via the finite-element method. These calculations solve the Poisson-Nernst-Planck-Stokes equations, where the core particle moves according to the hydrodynamic and electric forces acting on it. FINDINGS In experiments the core exhibited three frequency-dependent regimes of field-driven motion: (i) parallel to the field, (ii) diffusive in a plane orthogonal to the field, and (iii) unbiased random motion. The transitions between the three observed regimes can be explained by the level of matching between the time required to establish ionic gradients in the shell and the period of the AC field. We further investigated the effect of shell porosity, ionic strength, and inner-shell radius. The former strongly impacted the core's behavior by attenuating the field inside the shell. Our results provide physical understanding on how the behavior of yolk-shell particles may be tuned, thereby enhancing their potential for use as building blocks for switchable photonic crystals.

Abstract
Disordered packings of colloidal spheres show angle-independent structural color when the particles are on the scale of the wavelength of visible light. Previous work has shown that the positions of the peaks in the reflectance spectra can be predicted accurately from a single-scattering model that accounts for the effective refractive index of the material. This agreement shows that the main color peak arises from short-range correlations between particles. However, the single-scattering model does not quantitatively reproduce the observed color: the main peak in the reflectance spectrum is much broader and the reflectance at low wavelengths is much larger than predicted by the model. We use a combination of experiment and theory to understand these features. We find that one significant contribution to the breadth of the main peak is light that is scattered, totally internally reflected from the boundary of the sample, and then scattered again. The high reflectance at low wavelengths also results from multiple scattering but can be traced to the increase in the scattering cross section of individual particles with decreasing wavelength. Both of these effects tend to reduce the saturation of the structural color, which limits the use of these materials in applications. We show that while the single-scattering model cannot reproduce the observed saturations, it can be used as a design tool to reduce the amount of multiple scattering and increase the color saturation of materials, even in the absence of absorbing components.

Abstract
Colloidal crystals and glasses have their own photonic effects. Colloidal crystals show high reflectivity at narrowband, whereas colloidal glasses show low reflectivity at broadband. To compromise the opposite optical properties, a simple means is suggested to control the colloidal arrangement between crystal and glass by employing two different sizes of silica particles with repulsive interparticle potential. Monodisperse silica particles with repulsive potential spontaneously form crystalline structure at volume fraction far below 0.74. When two different sizes of silica particles coexist, the arrangement of silica particles is significantly influenced by two parameters: size contrast and mixing ratio. When the size contrast is small, a long-range order is partially conserved in the entire mixing ratio, resulting in a pronounced reflectance peak and brilliant structural color. When the size contrast is large, the long-range order is rapidly reduced along with mixing ratio. Nevertheless, a short-range order survives, which causes low reflectivity at a broad wavelength, developing faint structural colors. These findings offer an insight into controlling the colloidal arrangements and provide a simple way to tune the optical property of colloidal arrays for structural coloration.

Abstract
Mechanochromic materials have recently received tremendous attention because of their potential applications in humanoid robots, smart windows, strain sensors, anti-counterfeit tags, etc. However, improvements in device design are highly desired for practical implementation in a broader working environment with a high stability. In this article, a novel and robust mechanochromism was designed and fabricated via a facile method. Silica nanoparticles (NPs) that serve as a trigger of color switch were embedded in elastomer to form a bi-layer hybrid film. Upon stretching under ambient conditions, the hybrid film can change color as well as transparency. Furthermore, it demonstrates excellent reversibility and reproducibility and is promising for widespread application.

Abstract
Human beings have developed many dyes and pigments and use them for printed and display materials to share information. Today's information society is not possible without these color materials. Some living organisms utilize body color for information exchange and protection by skilfully combining dye, structural, and background colors to realize a body color change based on circumstances. In this study, inspired by the extraordinary body color changes of living things, a composite color material combining photochromic dyes, a black substance, a spherical colloidal crystal exhibiting a structural color, and a background color is prepared. In addition to combining a dye color and a structural color that changes upon light irradiation, the contribution of the different effects of the background color on each coloring property allows the construction of a color material that can reversibly change into various colors under different conditions.

Abstract
Artificial structural colors based on short-range-ordered amorphous photonic structures (APSs) have attracted great scientific and industrial interest in recent years. However, the previously reported methods of self-assembling colloidal nanoparticles lack fine control of the APS coating and fixation on substrates and poorly realize three-dimensional (3D) conformal coatings for objects with irregular or highly curved surfaces. In this paper, atomization deposition of silica colloidal nanoparticles with poly(vinyl alcohol) as the additive is proposed to solve the above problems. By finely controlling the thicknesses of APS coatings, additive mixing of noniridescent structural colors is easily realized. Based on the intrinsic omnidirectional feature of atomization, a one-step 3D homogeneous conformal coating is also readily realized on various irregular or highly curved surfaces, including papers, resins, metal plates, ceramics, and flexible silk fabrics. The vivid coatings on silk fabrics by atomization deposition possess robust mechanical properties, which are confirmed by rubbing and laundering tests, showing great potential in developing an environmentally friendly coloring technique in the textile industry.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2015; 27:4719-4724. [PMID: 26175211 DOI: 10.1002/adma.201501936] [Citation(s) in RCA: 94] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2015] [Revised: 06/01/2015] [Indexed: 06/04/2023]
Abstract
Non-iridescent structural colors of high color visibility are produced by amorphous photonic structures, in which -natural cuttlefish ink is used as an additive to break down the long-range order of the structures. The color hue and its spectral purity can be tuned by adjusting the diameter of the polystyrene (PS) spheres and the proportion of ink particles.
