“…Step i can be done by positioning particles at the air-solid, [72][73][74][75][76] air-liquid, [77] liquid-liquid, [78,79] or liquid-solid interface. [10,11,17] In cases where a solid template is implemented, the particle positions at the interface are manually adjusted.…”

The site‐specific engineering of colloidal surfaces has provided a powerful approach to pushing the boundaries of today's materials research. The resulting surface‐anisotropic and patchy particles have become the center of vital research areas, ranging from the need for large‐scale fabrication techniques to exploring new applications of these materials. This Review summarizes patchy particle fabrication techniques, including but not limited to particle and nanosphere lithography and glancing‐angle deposition. The variety of existing patchy particle fabrication techniques is revealed and the need for a scalable approach to high‐volume patchy particle production is identified. Ongoing modeling efforts describing patchy particle interactions and properties are reviewed as potential predictive tools. Research endeavors that deal with the directed assembly of patchy particles in electric and magnetic fields, as well as with supraparticular assembly through chemical interactions, are discussed. The Review is concluded with a note on the future application of patchy particles as phoretic motors.magnified image

“…2). Fortunately, if this variation of the refractive index of these porous films is periodic then it gives rise to interesting optical properties [25,45]. For instance, periodic alternation of electric permittivity within these materials leads to appearance of PBGs.…”

“…In a second step, the deposit can be removed, allowing a further different functionalization of the previously covered surface [10]. Non-symmetrical micro-spheres can also be used to force self-assembling in a preferred way and build organized architectures, such as photonic crystals.…”

“…However, conventional and advanced lithographic techniques [6] are essentially limited to planar and cylindrical substrates [7]. The first attempts for particles dissymmetrisation were investigations of partial silanization [8], chemisorption in directional fluxes [9] and differential nano-clusters adsorption at interfaces [10]. We extend these methods by presenting a general and convenient alternative that (i) combines micro-photochemical deposition driven by a strongly localized laser excitation, to "nucleate" a deposit, i.e.…”
