Abstract
Monodisperse spherical colloids were employed as the building blocks for the synthesis of complex structures like ordered lattices and well-defined aggregates. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of an FCC lattice of 1-μm polystyrene beads was synthesized. The SEM image was templated against a two-dimensional array of cylindrical holes that were 2μm in diameter. Complex structures were conveniently obtained from spherical colloids through assembly processes.
