The self-organization of colloidal particles inside confining geometries have been intensively studied for the fabrication of colloidal clusters, which have potential applications as novel building block particles for photonic structures. The complex fluid system such as water-in-oil emulsions and oil or aerosol droplets have been adopted for the evaporation-driven self-assembly using direct heating or microwave-assisted evaporation of the droplets to fabricate spherical colloidal crystals, supraparticles, small colloidal clusters, patchy particles, and non-spherical hollow micro-particles. In this presentation, these progresses will be briefly discussed, especially for the recent research results on the cluster fabrication from Pickering emulsion droplets and the generation of porous particles from emulsion templates with high yields, for potential applications of superhydrophobic surfaces or oil adsorbents. The encapsulation of QD nanocrystals inside polymeric nanospheres will be also introduced for the fabrication of QD-assisted LEDs with high CRI values. |
