Sumario:A rapid curing method for the preparation of colloidal photonic crystal films is presented. Firstly, a colloidal crystal array template was prepared by self-assembly of nanospheres, and then a dilute polymer solution was poured into the gap of the template. Then the composite photonic film was obtained as the polymer solution was cured. Such films have good properties in mechanical strength, anti pH interference, rapid solvent response and are easy to preserve. The films show good linear response to ethanol aqueous solutions of different concentrations, and the response equilibrium takes less than 20 s. The films also show long-term stability and reusability, and further functionalization can make the films multi-sensitive.
