Colloidal crystals with diamond symmetry at optical lengthscales

Colloidal crystals arranged in a diamond lattice are desirable for photonic applications, yet are challenging to create. Here, Wanget al. show the self-assembly of a binary system composed of two interlocked diamond structures with lattice spacing comparable to the wavelength of visible light.
