Depletion-induced colloidal crystals at a wall characterised by small-angle X-ray diffraction

Silica photonic colloidal crystals on a flat glass substrate have been grown using the depletion attraction induced by nonadsorbing polymers. The dried samples have been characterised with high-resolution synchrotron small-angle X-ray diffraction and their surface topography has been studied by atom...
