Stimuli-responsive noniridescent structural color of thin-film coating based on multilayered nanosheets preserving interlayer space

Key Points

• The aim is to develop a thin-film coating that exhibits noniridescent structural color through the use of multilayered nanosheets with controlled interlayer space.
• Utilized two-dimensional anisotropic structures for material design.
• Exfoliated nanosheets served as building blocks to form organized architectures.
• Examined the structural coloration under different stimulus conditions.
• Demonstrated that the thin-film coating exhibits color changes in response to stimuli.
• Maintained stable structural coloration despite variations in the interlayer space.
• Showed that multilayered nanosheets effectively support functional color responses.
