Abstract
This disclosure relates to non-naturally occurring light reflecting or color changing materials comprising a segmented array of flexible polymers, wherein the segmented array of flexible polymers comprise photonic crystal lattices embedded therein, wherein the segmented array of flexible polymers are themselves embedded within an elastic supporting polymer that maintains a near constant size during chromatic shifting of the photonic crystal lattices.
