Abstract:Cholesteric liquid crystal elastomer (CLCE) is a photonic crystal material with a periodic helical structure that combinesunique optical anisotropy with mechanical stimulus-responsive properties,demonstrating broadapplication prospects inflexible photonicdevices.However,the preparationof patterned CLCEstillfaces challenges.Based onthe thiolMichaeladditionreaction,thermochromiccholesteric liquidcrystaline oligomers (CLCO)with controllble degreesof polymerizationand varying chain lengths weresynthesized,andthe structure-propertyrelationship between their liquid crystal phase structure and structuralcolor was systematically explored.Utilzing the temperature-induced cholesteric-smectic phase transition effect,the structural colorof CLCOcanbe tuned tocover thethree primarycolors,red,green,and blue, within a wavelength range (Δλ) of 126nm .Patterned stretchable CLCE films were prepared through local photopolymerization at different temperatures. By further decreasing n (Acrylate) /n (Thiol), the degree of polymerization ofCLCO was enhanced andthe croslinking densityofCLCE was reduced,resulting inan increase inits elongationatbreak to 20% and enabling force-induced color changesacross the visible spectrum.This study notonly provides new insights into the dynamic regulation and paterning of structural color in CLCE,but also establishes a material foundation for applications in information encryption and anti-counterfeiting.
