| Abstract | A synthetic route to attain environment-sensitive thin-film Bragg stacks (BSs) that behave as a kind of visual signal transducer is shown. Herein, organic–inorganic hybrid BSs are fabricated by alternating thin layers of poly(N,N′-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and titanium dioxide through spin-coating, a facile, reproducible and cost-efficient approach. The BSs display bright non-bleaching structural color over the entire visible region, which arises from periodic modulation of the refractive index. Tailoring of optical properties is achieved by regulation of slab periodicity and/or introduction of planar defects. Since alteration of hydrogen ion concentration can cause the swelling transition of the responsive polymeric layer, PDMAEMA, color changes of the as-prepared BSs could be initiated by different pH values of aqueous media. Therefore, transformation of chemical signals into optical effects is obtained for analytical applications. The platform furnishes us an opportunity to realize biochemical-to-optical signal transduction by coupling it with a highly specific enzymatic reaction, glucose oxidation reaction catalyzed by the enzyme glucose oxidase. A dramatic photonic bandgap shift, more than 200 nm, makes it direct and convenient to differentiate the reflective color using the naked eyes. Besides, the intriguing characteristics make the Bragg stacks eminently suitable for other applications, such as environmental monitoring and medical diagnostics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
