By this method, a uniform colloidal crystal thin film over ten square centimeters in area can be fabricated in lOmin without special facilities and heating the suspension. SEM images and a normal incidence transmission spectrum of the sample show that the colloidal crystal film fabricated by this method is of high quality. In addition, this method is very suitable for fabricating colloidal crystal heterostructures.展开更多
