A technique to grow millimeter‐scale (3 mm × 0.5 mm) electric‐field‐induced colloidal single crystals and a polymerization process that immobilizes them, allowing drying and reversal of the refractive‐index contrast, is presented. The Figure shows a 2D diffraction pattern under white‐light illumination from a crystal; the hexagonal symmetry pattern is characteristic of a close‐packed lattice.
