1. A method of manufacturing a reflective color filter, the method comprising:
forming colloidal particles having a charged surface; forming colloidal crystals capable of reflecting a first color by controlling distances between the colloidal particles; the first color corresponding to one of red, blue and green, adding a monomer mixture for photopolymerization to the colloidal crystals capable of reflecting the first color; coating the colloidal crystals capable of reflecting the first color and the monomer mixture for photopolymerization on a substrate; forming a first photonic crystal composite capable of reflecting the first color by exposing radiation to the colloidal crystals capable of reflecting the first color and the monomer mixture for; changing a first portion of the first photonic crystal composite to a second photonic crystal composite capable of reflecting a second color, the second color being different than the first color; the second color corresponding to a different one of red, blue and green, changing one of a second portion of the first photonic crystal composite and a part of the second photonic crystal composite to a third photonic crystal composite that is capable of reflecting a third color,
the third color being different than the first color and the second color,the third color corresponding an other one of red, blue, and green, wherein the distances between the colloidal particles in at least one of the first photonic crystal composite, the second photonic crystal composite, and the third photonic crystal composite is controlled by expanding the colloidal particles by adding a solvent, or contracting the colloidal particles by evaporating the solvent, the forming the first photonic crystal composite includes forming the first photonic crystal composite on first to third pixel regions of the substrate; the changing the first portion of the first photonic crystal composite to the second crystal composite includes,
arranging a first mask over the first photonic crystal composite,
the first mask defining a first opening over the first portion of the first photonic crystal composite,the first portion of the first photonic crystal composite being on the second pixel region and the third pixel region of the substrate, andinjecting one of a monomer and a solvent into the first portion of the first photonic crystal composite to form the second crystal composite on the second pixel region and the third pixel region of the substrate; andthe changing the one of the second portion of the first photonic crystal composite and the part of the second photonic crystal composite to the third photonic crystal composite includes changing the part of the second photonic crystal composite to the third photonic crystal composite,
the part of the second photonic crystal composite being on the third pixel region of the substrate before the changing the part of the second photonic crystal composite to the third photonic crystal composite.
