The invention relates to the technical field of
photonic crystal materials, in particular to a wide-temperature-range low-energy-consumption multistable
photonic crystal film and a preparation method and application thereof.The
photonic crystal film is composed of a physical crosslinking type
hydrogel matrix and
magnetic response type photonic crystals fixed in the physical crosslinking type
hydrogel matrix, the photonic
crystal film has
magnetic field adjustability of colors in a
sol state above a
phase change point of the hydrogel, and magnetic
assembly colors in the
sol state can be recorded and developed in a
gel state at the temperature of the
phase change point. According to the wide-temperature-range low-energy-consumption multistable photonic
crystal film, the element for regulating and controlling the
optical property is the
magnetic photonic crystal, the color is changed based on
magnetic field response, compared with other external fields such as light,
electricity and chemical stimulation, the
magnetic field has the properties of non-contact,
controllability and the like, and adjustment is easy and convenient. The photonic
crystal film is rich in color change variety,
energy loss only occurs in the color regulation and control stage, color stable display does not need
external field assistance, and therefore the photonic crystal film is a low-energy-consumption multistable photonic crystal film.
