A colloidal crystal microstructure fiber: fabrication and characterization

Abstract: A method of fabricating colloidal crystal microstructured fiber is presented. The proposed structure relies on partial etching of the cladding layer of a singlemode fiber and growth of colloidal photonic crystals inside eroded area. The photonic crystal cylindrical annulus embedded in fiber is characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. The optical characterization was analyzed by optical transmission spectroscopy. The measurement results show a about 1550-nm band gap. The results also reveal th… Show more

“…Colloidal crystal fibers have emerged in the recent two decades and have shown huge potential in flexible electronics and healthcare devices. [226][227][228][229][230][231][232][233] A typical strategy for fabricating colloidal crystal fibers is the templating method. [234][235][236] Ozin and coworkers designed a microchannel for monodisperse silica nanoparticle deposition.…”

“…A fibre will be coloured structurally by forming colloidal crystals on its surface. Some studies have fabricated colloidal crystals on the surface of fibres through the dip‐coating method , electro‐deposition , and self‐assembling in a micro‐space to impart a structural colour. However, these studies only investigated a method of depositing particles on the fibre's surface in order to evaluate the structure and optical properties of the colloidal crystal deposited on the fibre.…”
