Synthesis of Poly(ST-co-COPSI)particles by soap-free emulsion copolymerization and its optical properties as photonic crystals
Highly charged, submicron-sized polymeric colloidal particles can self assemble into 3-dimentional(3D) opal structure which is useful template for photonic crystal. In this report, optical properties of poly[Styrene(ST)-co-Allyloxy-2-hydroxypropane sulfonic acid sodium salt(COPSI)] polymeric microspheres with number [...]
