ABSTRACT Structural coloured organic–inorganic hybrid silica films are prepared through a self-templating approach using a liquid crystalline organosilane and a chiral dopant under the catalysis of HCl. The reflective band is tunable by changing the concentration of the chiral dopant. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy images indicated that the layer structure is constructed by right-handed packed nanofibers. Graphical abstract
