Abstract

Colloidal particles (CPs) have been the subject of intensive studies and have attracted increasing attention from the scientific community. In this contribution, we present the design and synthesis of luminescent colloidal crystal films. Rare earth complexes as the photoluminescent source is introduced into the polymeric nanospheres system, the diameter can be controlled by changing the polymeric reaction condition, which can act as building blocks to prepare diverse functional materials. Further, three-dimensional (3-D) colloidal crystal films with excellent fluorescent properties are fabricated by self-organization of the monodispersed polymeric nanospheres. The colloidal crystal film indicates a photonic band gap, which depends on the diameter and size-dispersing of the nanospheres building blocks. It shows potential applications in fabricating optical devices, data storage, chemical and biological sensors, and color displays.
