Abstract
This paper proposes a novel approach for the preparation
of colored
films with a metallic luster and high hardness. The colored organic
films were patterned as microdots by photolithography, and then honeycomb-shaped
Ni walls were electrodeposited between the micropatterning. The organic/inorganic
composite films showed the hardest grade in a pencil hardness test
and high durability in wear resistance tests because the honeycomb-shaped
Ni walls protected the colored organic dots
