Soft matter design principles for inorganic photonic nanoarchitectures in photovoltaics, colorimetric sensing and self-cleaning antireflective coatings

Stefan Guldin

The self-assembly of soft matter, such as block copolymers or colloids, allows fine tuning of structure formation on the 10 - 500 nm length scale and therefore enables the design of materials with tunable optical response. We present strategies on how to e ...
