Chromaticity of structural color in polymer thin film photonic crystals

摘要

A three-dimensional goniometric study of thin-film polymer photonic crystals investigates how the chromaticity of structural color is correlated to structural ordering. Characterization of chromaticity and the angular properties of structural color are presented in terms of CIE 1931 color spaces. We examine the viewing angle dependency of the Bragg scattering cone relative to sample symmetry planes, and our results demonstrate how increased ordering influences angular scattering width and anisotropy. Understanding how the properties of structural color can be quantified and manipulated has significant implications for the manufacture of functional photonic crystals in sensors, smart fabrics, coatings, and other optical device applications.

我的研究关注软功能材料中的介观结构调控及其光学、热学与力学功能。我们以胶体、颗粒组装和聚合物复合体系为主要材料平台,研究剪切、弯曲、拉伸和循环形变等外部力学场如何驱动微结构重排、结晶、晶格转变与取向选择,并进一步调控材料的结构色、光谱响应、热辐射特性和力学响应。通过将软物质物理、可规模化加工和结构—性能分析相结合,研究旨在发展可编程软光子材料与功能涂层,为自适应光学表面、光热调控、传感和机械编码材料提供新的设计思路.
