Abstract
Colloidal photonic crystals (CPCs) are highly significant for display and anti-counterfeiting applications due to their vibrant structural colors and light-manipulating properties. Efficient and extensive CPC patterns is required for practical applications. Additionally, it is essential to incorporate complex optical elements or responsive qualities to the CPC patterns in order to enhance their performances for security applications. Herein, we proposed CPC patterns with alterable images revealed by changes in viewing angle or exposure to certain vapors. The CPC patterns were prepared by inkjet printing method. Through substrate modification to achieve varying wettability, angle-dependent optical adaptable images could potentially be shown by the patterns. The mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were employed as building blocks to impart vapor-chromic characteristics to the CPC patterns. The CPC complex patterns responsive optical characteristics rendered them suitable for use in public authentication and anti-counterfeiting applications.
