    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Optics
    • Nanotechnology

    Background:

    • Structural color arises from light interaction with periodic nanostructures.
    • Colloidal crystals offer tunable optical properties based on particle size and arrangement.
    • Laser-based fabrication provides precise control over surface modifications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate a pulsed solid-state laser method for structural color modulation on metal-coated colloidal crystals.
    • To explore the influence of laser scanning speed and polystyrene (PS) particle size on optical properties.
    • To analyze the angle-dependent optical characteristics of the fabricated structural colors.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a pulsed solid-state laser to modify metal-coated colloidal crystal surfaces.
    • Varied laser scanning speeds and polystyrene (PS) microsphere sizes (300 nm, 420 nm, 600 nm).
    • Measured reflectance spectra and analyzed angle-dependent optical properties.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved vivid structural colors (cyan, orange, yellow, magenta) by controlling laser parameters.
    • Observed a red shift in reflectance peaks with increasing scanning speed (4-200 mm/s) for 300 nm PS microspheres.
    • Reported a blue shift in reflection peaks for 420 nm and 600 nm PS crystals with decreased scanning speed (100-10 mm/s) and increased incident angle (15°-45°).

    Conclusions:

    • Demonstrated a cost-effective laser-based method for tunable structural color generation.
    • Highlighted the significant impact of laser scanning speed, particle size, and incident angle on optical responses.
    • Paved the way for potential applications in green printing, anti-counterfeiting, and advanced optical devices.
