摘要
The method of spectroscopic ellipsometry is applied to complex periodic nanomaterials, consisting of shear-ordered polymeric nanosphere composites, with intense resonant structural color. A corresponding multilayer optical quasi-model of the system, parametrizing the inherent degree of sample disorder and encompassing key properties of effective refractive-index and index-contrast, is developed to elucidate the correlation between the increment and psi ellipsometric parameters and the shear-induced opaline crystallinity. These approaches offer reliable means of in-line tracking of the sample quality of such "polymer opals" in large scale processing and applications.
