Abstract

Colloidal crystallization of copolymer-grafted silica containing ferrocenyl groups in organic solvents and effects of ferrocenyl groups on effective refractive index of colloidal crystal systems were investigated. Poly(ferrocenyl metharylate (FeMA)-co-methyl methacrylate (MMA)-grafted silica gave colloidal crystallization in dimethylformamide and acetonitrile. The colloidal crystals exhibited characteristic coloration due to cooperative effects of specific absorption at 400–500 nm by ferrocenyl group and transmission of 700–800-nm light through the crystals. It was observed that effective refractive index of colloidal crystals systems of poly(FeMA-co-MMA)-grafted silica was higher than that of poly(MMA)-grafted silica. Normalized effective refractive index of the system linearly increased with mole fraction of FeMA in grafted copolymer. However, poly(FeMA-block-MMA) did not bring effective increase of the index because of bias formation of ferrocenyl group on silica.
