Because of the features of photonic localization in photonic bandgap(PBG), the photonic crystals can be coupled to DSSC to increase the conversion efficiency. In this paper, through exploring the preparation of large inverse opal structure of ZnO, we attempt to apply the photonic crystals to the Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC) to improve its efficiency. The colloidal crystal template is prepared by self-assembled on FTO substrates, and three-dimensional ZnO inverse opal is synthesized via an electrochemical deposition method in zinc nitrate solution. Then we study the inflations of its surface morphology and photonic bandgap on the solar cell’s photoelectric conversion efficiency.

By mimicking the fine structures of butterflies wings and peacocks feathers, we have successfully brought structural color to silk fabrics. The three-dimensional (3D) face centre cubic (FCC) opal or inverse opal structure was constructed on the surface of the silk fabrics by materials assembly. The diversified colors were achieved by precisely controlling the lattice constants of the photonic crystals.

Unique Method

Here, we present a physiologically relevant model of the human pulmonary alveoli. This alveolar lung-on-a-chip platform is composed of a three-dimensional porous hydrogel made of gelatin methacryloyl with an inverse opal structure, bonded to a compartmentalized polydimethylsiloxane chip. The inverse opal hydrogel structure features well-defined, interconnected pores with high similarity to human alveolar sacs. By populating the sacs with primary human alveolar epithelial cells, functional epithelial monolayers are readily formed. Cyclic strain is integrated into the device to allow biomimetic breathing events of the alveolar lung, which, in addition, makes it possible to investigate pathological effects such as those incurred by cigarette smoking and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pseudoviral infection. Our study demonstrates a unique method for reconstitution of the functional human pulmonary alveoli in vitro, which is anticipated to pave the way for investigating relevant physiological and pathological events in the human distal lung.
