纺织基底上光子晶体的高结构稳定性，通过表面支撑固化策略制备。

Over the past years, photonic crystals (PCs) with a periodically ordered nanostructure have attracted great attention due to their potential as advanced optical materials for structural coloration of textiles. However, the weak structural stability of PCs on flexible textile substrates makes them vulnerable to strong external forces, hampering their large-scale application. In this work, a waterborne polyurethane (wPU) is chosen for enhancing the structural stability of PCs. The composite PCs (PCs/wPU) show both brilliant structural colors and significantly improved structural stability. The structural color produced by the encapsulated PCs is found to depend on the properties of encapsulating agents. The wPU with high surface tension solidifies mainly on the PC surface in the form of a transparent film, protecting the overall structure of PCs. Meanwhile, a small amount of wPU, infiltrating into the interior of PCs, provides strong adhesion and ensures stability among nanospheres. In turn, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with low surface tension is easy to infiltrate into the interior of PCs, forming fully encapsulated PCs. This reduces the brightness of structural color produced by the final PCs/PDMS composite over the original PCs, due to the replacement of air by PDMS, and thus the decrease in the refractive index contrast of PCs. The supported curing strategy using the encapsulating agent with high surface tension is shown to not only improve the structural stability of PCs but also exert almost no influence on the optical properties of PCs, facilitating the practice application of structural coloration in the textile industry.
