Abstract Combining responsive colloidal photonic crystals into invisible wettability patterns is important in steganography and watermarking for information encoding decoding. Using a bilayer crystal as regionally functionalized porous carrier, dual‐responsive surface with tunable wettability, reversible switching between wetting no wetting, responsivity to pressure solvents are reported. The mechanism of the design involves micropore shapes optical diffraction fabricated periodic...
Abstract Combining functional response materials into colloidal photonic crystals is an accepted encryption strategy for information security. Here, bilayer inverse heterostructure that enable instantaneously transparentizing of the top layer and simultaneously releasing reflected light bottom when exposed to ethanol are reported. The transition can quickly return its original state after evaporation ethanol. In addition, film responsive water, which shows redshift bandgap position....
Radiative cooling shows great promise in eco-friendly space due to its zero-energy consumption. For subambient hot humid subtropical/tropical climates, achieving ultrahigh solar reflectance (≥96%), durable ultraviolet (UV) resistance, and surface superhydrophobicity simultaneously is critical, which, however, challenging for most state-of-the-art scalable polymer-based coolers. Here an organic-inorganic tandem structure reported address this challenge, which comprises a bottom...
Due to the large specific surface area and continuous pores in structures, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) show great advantages adsorption of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Photonic crystal (PC) sensors derived from MOFs are promising for visual detection VOC gases. However, they still have problems low sensitivity poor color saturation tunability.

Flocculants are crucial agents in wastewater treatment because they can remove oppositely charged impurities effectively and swiftly. However, flocculation also inevitably causes secondary contamination due to the residual properties, nonreusability, nondegradability of traditional flocculant molecules. Herein, an ecofriendly starch-based flocculant, i.e., 2,4-bis(dimethylamino)-[1,3,5]-triazine-6-starch, was synthesized via a preactivation-etherification strategy. The large molecular weight...
