wherein the photonic crystal of the hydrophilic layer further comprises an alkali metal salt and a hydrophilic polymer, and the hydrophilic polymer forms an interpenetrate network with the hydrophilic segment, and
wherein the hydrophilic layer and the hydrophobic layer are alternately laminated to have a structure that exhibits a structural color by light interference, and when the hydrophilic layer absorbs water, the hydrophilic layer swells such that the structural color changes.
2 . The structural color display device of claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic segment is at least one polyolefin block selected from ethylene, polypropylene, polybutene-1, polymethylpentene and polystyrene.
3 . The structural color display device of claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic segment is a monomer block formed by polymerization of at least one hydrophilic monomer selected from 2-vinylpyridine, 4-vinylpyridine and polyisoprene.
4 . The structural color display device of claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic layer and the hydrophobic layer are alternately laminated one or more times in the laminate, respectively,
wherein the thickness of each hydrophilic layer is 100 nm to 120 nm at a relative humidity of 30%, and
wherein the thickness of each hydrophobic layer is 20 nm to 40 nm, regardless of relative humidity.
5 . The structural color display device of claim 4 , wherein the thickness of each hydrophilic layer is 150 nm to 180 nm at a relative humidity of 80%.
6 . The structural color display device of claim 1 , wherein the ionic gel electrode comprises an alkali metal salt and a hydrophilic polymer.
7 . The structural color display device of claim 6 , wherein the alkali metal salt and hydrophilic polymer comprised in the hydrophilic layer are the same as those comprised in the ionic gel electrode.
