Engineering Photonic Pigments From Titania–Block Copolymer Composites
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Ligand‐functionalized TiO2 nanoparticles selectively partition into P2VP‐rich lamellae of onion‐like PS‐b‐P2VP microspheres, increasing refractive index contrast while preserving concentric order through controlled self‐assembly. The resulting dry photonic pigments display defined Bragg reflections and angle‐robust structural color.

Crystallization in Poly(Ethylene Oxide) Thin Films: Roles of Shear, Confinement, and Homoepitaxy
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.A comprehensive three‐mechanism framework governing PEO crystallization orientation in thin films was established using GIWAXS and molecular‐level PM‐IRRAS analysis. We demonstrate systematic switching between shear‐induced edge‐on and confinement‐ or homoepitaxy‐induced flat‐on alignment.
