“…Structural color originating from the interaction of certain nanostructures and visible light has attracted great interest. − Compared to conventional color based on chemical pigments or organic dyes, structural color materials involve several prominent advantages including high spatial resolution, excellent structure stability, and environmentally friendliness, and thus can be utilized in various application fields such as color printing, color display, and decoration. ,− Dynamic color-changing materials, known as an important branch of structural color materials, possesses multiple advanced functionalities and wonderful color-changing capabilities in response to external stimuli, which exist extensively in nature. − One of the most typical example is chameleons, who change their structural colors dynamically in response to the color change of the surrounding environment by actively tuning the lattice spacing of small guanine nanocrystals in iridophores . As a deep understanding of definite relationship between structural color and nanostructures is achieved, scientists try to mimic such responsive behaviors in nature and begin to design various dynamic color-changing materials due to their potential applications in visual sensing, − dynamic color display, − anticounterfeiting, − image encryption/decryption, ,, etc. In the area of dynamic color-changing materials, photonic crystals, and plasmonic nanostructures have been extensively explored through integrating stimuli-responsive material into their intrinsic structure or interstice structure. ,− However, toward further practical applications of such materials, both of these two typical systems consist of complex constructions and suffer from time-consuming and complicated manufacturing processes.…”
