Evaporation‐induced self‐assembly of colloidal particles is one of the most versatile fabrication routes to obtain large‐area colloidal crystals; however, the formation of uncontrolled “drying cracks” due to gradual solvent evaporation represents a significant challenge of this process. While several methods are reported to minimize crack formation during evaporation‐induced colloidal assembly, here...
In article number 1908242, Ling Li and co‐workers provide a mechanistic understanding of crack formations during the evaporation‐induced self‐assembly of colloidal crystals, which allows for rational controlling of the location and orientation of cracks for fabricating photonic microstructures with controlled geometries and sizes.
