Electrical voltage was applied to dispersions solution including crosslinked polystyrene nanoparticles synthesized by soap-free emulsion polymerization. Structural color emerged through regular arrangement of nanoparticle by electrophoresis. The wavelength and reflectance value of the structural colors was affected by solution polarity.
