“…Photonic Crystals (PCs) are one of the most popular nanomaterials in recent years (John, 1987;Yablonovitch, 1987) which are regular multi-dimensional periodic structures that are composed of two or more materials with different refractive indexes. As a unique photonic metamaterial, it has found many important applications in dynamic color displays (Liao, et al, 2019;Lai, et al, 2022), optical sensing (Wang, et al, 2021), and anticounterfeiting (Wang, et al, 2020). At present, they are mainly prepared by self-assembly methods, among which vertical self-assembly (Hong et al, 2014), centrifugal self-assembly (Hu et al, 2013), electrophoretic deposition self-assembly (Katagiri et al, 2017), electrostatic and capillary action self-assembly (Lee et al, 2014) and microfluidic synthesis (Yin et al, 2016)are commonly used.…”
