Controllable preparation and orientation-dependent retroreflective structural color properties of anisotropic colloidal photonic crystals
Here, we have developed a method that utilizes deformed inverse opal templates to adjust the morphology of the building blocks and leverage their confinement effects for the <i>in situ</i> preparation and simultaneous assembly of monodisperse anisotropic colloidal particles. Based on the anisotropy of the building blocks, we have conducted the first study on the orientation-dependent retroreflective structural color of anisotropic colloidal photonic crystals (ACPCs).
