We have obtained opal-like photonic crystals based on opals and inverted opals exhibiting a shift of the selective reflection band toward longer and shorter wavelengths with respect to the diffraction band of the initial opal consisting of $SiO_2$ spheres. The contribution of frames forming three-dimensional periodic structures and that of fillers to the spectral arrangement of the diffraction bands has been determined.

최근 들어 정렬구조의 나노구조체를 이용한 분리막 응용기술이 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 나노구조체 분리막은 낮은 흐름저항을 통해 높은 투습성을 유지하면서도 매우 균일한 기공크기 특성으로 인해 높은 분리선택비를 가질 수 있다는 장점을 지닌다. 특히 콜로이드 입자의 자기조립체인 오팔상 및 그 역구조인 역오팔상 구조체를 이용한 분리막 기술이 각광을 받고 있는데, 기공크기를 자유롭게 제어하면서도 내부에 다양한 기능기의 도입이 가능하여 크기선별 분리 뿐 아니라 반응성 분리막의 응용에까지 폭넓게 적용이 가능하다. 더불어 다양한 멀티스케일 구조화 기술을 이용하여 기존의 분리막 소재에서는 다룰 수 없었던 다양한 형태의 기공 및 채널구조를 도입할 수 있어, 차세대 고부가가치 분리막 소재기술에 있어 큰 활용이 기대된다. 본 기고에서는 다양한 소재를 활용한 역오팔상 구조체 분리막 기술과 더불어 계층구조화를 통한 기능성 분리막의 개발에 대해 총괄적으로 살펴보고 논의하고자 한다.

Two different schemes were adopted to fabricate ordered macroporous structures with face centered cubic lattice of air spheres. Monodisperse polymeric latex suspension, which was synthesized by emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization, was mixed with metal oxide ceramic nanoparticles, followed by evaporation-induced self-assembly of the mixed hetero-colloidal particles. After calcination, inverse opal was generated during burning out the organic nanospheres. Inverse opals made of silica or iron oxide were fabricated according to this procedure. Other approach, which utilizes ceramic precursors instead of nanoparticles was adopted successfully to prepare ordered macroporous structure of titania with skeleton structures as well as lithium niobate inverted structures. Similarly, two different schemes were utilized to obtain disordered macroporous structures with random arrays of macropores. Disordered macroporous structure made of indium tin oxide (ITO) was obtained by fabricating colloidal glass of polystyrene microspheres with low monodispersity and subsequent infiltration of the ITO nanoparticles followed by heat treatment at high temperature for burning out the organic microspheres. Similar random structure of titania was also fabricated by mixing polystyrene building block particles with titania nanoparticles having large particle size followed by the calcinations of the samples.
