Reversible and switchable wrinkling surfaces in response to various external stimuli have extensive potential applications. In this Letter, we prepared the reversible wrinkling on poly(dimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces, responsive to the solvents, by ultraviolet-ozone (UVO) treatment with/without mechanical prestrain. Based on the solvent-responsive wrinkling, three types of optical transparency dynamics were achieved easily in a single and simple film-substrate system, including (I) completely reversible transparency with controlled relaxation time and isotropic light scattering; (II) completely reversible transparency with anisotropic light scattering and tunable diffusion degree; and (III) incompletely reversible transparency. The reversibility and stability of wrinkles can be controlled by tailoring the solvent type, UVO exposure time, and mechanical prestrain. The underlying mechanisms for the three wrinkling dynamics have been clearly elucidated. The extremely simple material system and the facile but efficient technique pave a novel way for realizing versatile optical dynamics for smart displays.
