In nature, some organisms have the ability to camouflage adapt environmental changes; they blend with environment by changing their skin colors. Such a phenomenon is of great significance for research adaptive materials. this study, we propose novel design scheme study angle-independent photonic materials and successfully prepare an electrically tunable multi-color display inverse opal gel (IOP...

The absorption spectra of the GAFCHROMIC XR type R radiochromic film measured with reflectance spectroscopy have been investigated in order to analyze the dosimetry characteristics of the film. Like the XR type T film, this film features two peaks in its absorption spectrum, approximately at 676 and 618 nm, whose intensities increase with increasing absorbed dose. When the main absorption peak ...
