3D Bulk Ordering in Macroscopic Solid Opaline Films by Edge-Induced Rotational Shearing

3D Bulk Ordering in Macroscopic Solid Opaline Films by Edge-Induced Rotational Shearing

Permanent ordering of sub‐micrometer polymeric spheres by edge rotational shearing is reported. The resulting high‐quality, bulk, 3D‐ordered polymer opal thin‐films exhibit strikingly intense, tuneable structural color, which is applicable for photonics, metamaterials, nanoassembly, and structural c...

Zusammenfassung:Permanent ordering of sub‐micrometer polymeric spheres by edge rotational shearing is reported. The resulting high‐quality, bulk, 3D‐ordered polymer opal thin‐films exhibit strikingly intense, tuneable structural color, which is applicable for photonics, metamaterials, nanoassembly, and structural color applications
