Three-dimensional/two-dimensional photonic crystal hydrogels for biosensing

Abstract: Photonic crystals (PCs) have attracted intense interest for sensing applications. Photonic crystal hydrogels (PCHs) consist of both periodic PCs and stimuli-responsive hydrogels, which can act as a sensing system for...

“…As the new generation of artificially designed optical material, photonic crystals (PCs) have unique periodic structures and optical characteristics—photonic bandgap (PBG)—which can alter the wavelength of reflected light when the stimuli such as pH, temperature, and pressure change the structural color of the PCs [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. Therefore, PCs have been playing an important role in environmental protection, biomimetic, and energy materials, especially in the field of biosensing [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. However, the rigidity of the PCs reduces their stability and limits their further application in wearable sensors.…”

“…With chemically or physically crosslinked three-dimensional (3D) network structures, polymer hydrogels possess the ability to absorb large amounts of water and resist dissolution. [1][2][3] The excellent biocompatibility, porous structure, tunable stiffness, and biological tissue-like elasticity of polymer hydrogels impart widespread use as biomaterials in the elds of tissue engineering, [4][5][6] gene and drug delivery systems, [7][8][9] cell cultures, [10][11][12] superabsorbents, [13][14][15][16] biosensors, [17][18][19][20] articial e-skins, [21][22][23] wound healing, [24][25][26] etc. However, conventional chemically crosslinked hydrogels are always brittle and exhibit poor mechanical performance due to the absence of an energy dissipation mechanism, limiting their widespread applications.…”
