Description
Summary:Photonic crystal nanostructures, whose photonic properties can be tuned in response to external stimuli, are desired for a wide range of applications in colour displays, biological and chemical sensors, and inks and paints. Until now there is no single resource which gives a complete overview of these exciting smart materials. Responsive Photonic Nanostructures: Smart Nanoscale Optical Materials details the fabrication of photonic crystal structures through self-assembly approaches, general strategies and approaches for creating responsive photonic structures for different responsive systems such as chemical, optical, electrical and magnetic as well as their applications. With contributions from leading experts in the field, this comprehensive summary on Responsive Photonic Nanostructures is suitable for postgraduates and researchers in academia and industry interested in smart materials and their potential applications.
