  • Patent number: 11892410
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a solid-state photonic crystal IPN composite functionalized with an enzyme, a photonic crystal IPN composite prepared by the method, and a biosensor using the photonic crystal IPN composite. The method of the present invention includes (1) mixing a nonreactive chiral dopant with a reactive nematic mesogen, curing the mixture, and removing the chiral dopant while maintaining a helical structure, to form a solid-state helical photonic crystal structure, (2) infiltrating a PAA hydrogel into the internal space of the photonic crystal structure, followed by curing to form an IPN-structured composite, and (3) immobilizing an enzyme in the IPN-structured composite. The PAA hydrogel is infiltrated into the solid-state helical photonic crystal structure and the enzyme is immobilized such that a pH change caused by the enzymatic reaction induces shrinkage and expansion of the PAA hydrogel, leading to a color change.

  • Patent number: 10745619
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing a solid-state helical photonic crystal structure. The method includes: mixing a nonreactive chiral dopant with a reactive nematic mesogen, followed by curing to form a helical cholesteric liquid crystal; and removing the chiral dopant from the cholesteric liquid crystal while maintaining the helical structure of the cholesteric liquid crystal, to form a solid-state helical liquid crystal.
