An optical imaging element and a preparation method are provided. The optical imaging element includes a plurality of superimposed optical imaging units. The optical imaging unit includes an upper light-transmitting laminate and a lower light-transmitting laminate. Both the upper light-transmitting laminate and the lower light-transmitting laminate are composed of a plurality of light-transmitting strips with reflective layers in parallel. The direction of a first light-transmitting strip in the upper light-transmitting laminate is vertically intersected with the direction of a second light-transmitting strip in the lower light-transmitting laminate. The reflective layer is a sandwich laminated metal magnetic thin layer, including a first metal aluminum layer, a central magnetic layer, and a second metal aluminum layer. A binary magneto-optical photonic crystal with a modular structure, or a ternary magneto-optical photonic crystal structure can be formed, thereby realizing the non-reciprocal phase shift region, reducing the light loss, and improving the refraction imaging accuracy.

An adhesive material that provides fast and robust adhesion on wet surfaces, where the adhesion formed is detachable on-demand. The adhesive material is formed of one or more hydrophilic polymers or copolymers grafted with one or more amine coupling groups via a plurality of cleavable physical bonds and/or cleavable covalent bonds and one or more cross linkers. Application of the adhesive material on a wet surface causes the adhesive material to absorb liquid to thereby swell the adhesive material to form a layer of hydrogel, resulting in the formation of temporary crosslinks followed by covalent crosslinks with the surface. Introducing a triggering agent cleaves the cleavable physical bonds and/or cleavable covalent bonds to allow for non-traumatic detachment of the adhesive material from the surface.
