Abstract: We report a new synthetic strategy of combining N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) chemistry and photonic crystals for the fabrication of polypeptide structural color films. Driven by surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization, the di-NCA derivative of l-cystine (Cys) is introduced… read more here.
