24. Decrease of the ridge height to less than ca. 20% of the particle diameter led to the insufficient confinement of the beads: the edge of the colloid crystal became wavy and the appearance of the array was similar to that observed in the case of planar patterning (refs 7 and 8).
25. We carried put experiments without colloid particles to find the nature of spherical inclusions appearing on the photoresist ridges. These experiments showed that small air bubbles (appearing presumably as a result of partial electrolysis of water) rise toward the upper surface (anode) and stick to the nonpolar ribs.
