Commercial ITO-coated glass samples without any nanoparticle coating were annealed as the other samples, to provide an appropriate reference point despite the deterioration of ITO conductivity during the high temperature treatment.\n\nThe overlap area of the clipped-together samples (= area for probing the porous films) was about 0.25 cm2. The clean end pieces of the ITO-glass substrates were contacted with silver paste and crocodile clips, and electrode impedance spectroscopy measurements were performed across the enclosed films, us- ing the following parameters on a Biologic SP-300 Poten- tiostat: Scan at 0 V from 1 MHz to 1 Hz, with 40 points per decade, a sinus amplitude of 5 mV, waiting 0.1 periods before each frequency.

The scaffolds can be used for the fabrication of anodes for electrochemical cells using a inverse opal method, i.e. filling the voids with a different material, removing the beads and getting the inverse pattern. The method is easy and scalable and requires only the described deposition holder, a pipette, a temperature controlled oven and a hotplate.\n\nThe deposition mechanism is controlled evaporation with a circular meniscus, inspired by [Denkov, N. D. et al. Two-dimensional crystallization. Nature 361, 26\u201326. issn: 0028-0836 (Jan. 7, 1993)]. \nThe round deposition basin of the device causes a rising of the water at the boundaries, creating a negative concave meniscus. After the filling of the basin with the bead suspension, the beads settle down quickly, because polystyrene is heavier than water and the micrometer beads are too big be considered as brownian particles and to diffuse around. For nm-sized beads diffusion may play a role. Anyway, the beads settle down and distribute regularly over the whole area. When the water evaporates and the water level reaches the beads in the middle, due to the concave meniscus, there is a sudden increase of surface area in the center, because the beads are still wetted by the water. The increase of surface area results in a higher evaporation rate, inducing a water flow to the center. \nDue to this water flow, a small hydrodynamic force pulls the beads towards the center. This directed force urges the beads to arrange in a uniform pattern.\n\nThe procedure was developed for 40 µm polystyrene beads and scaffolds of 2-5 bead layers, but it is principally considered to work also for different materials, bead sizes and scaffold thicknesses.","instructions":[{"name":"assembly","steps":[{"files":[{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/colloid_device_drawing.svg"},{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/drawing.png"},{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/device.jpg"}],"description":"Fabrication of deposition holder: A simple hand-made device used to clamp in substrate materials and deposite a uniform area of colloids in its centre via convective aseembly during drying of colloidal suspension.\n\nWe used 4mm thick aluminium rectangular pieces and cut the holes on a lathe: On top: large centre hole (depending on O-ring size!), and two M3 clearance holes; Bottom: two threaded holes for M3 screws.","components":[{"id":"1694194637","quantity":"1"}]},{"files":[{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/template_preparation (2).jpg"},{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/template_preparation (3).jpg"},{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/template_preparation (4).jpg"}],"description":"Assembly of sample holder: \nA cleaned substrate (here FTO-coated glass, 20x30mm, 3mm thick) is fastened in place with a rubber ring that is slightly bigger than the big hole.","components":[{"id":"1079894663","quantity":"1"},{"id":"896537831","quantity":"1"}]},{"files":[{"url":".\/.\/usdata\/template_preparation (5).jpg"}],"description":"Preparing the bead suspension:\nHere, 40µm diameter beads were used, 5% by weight in dionised water, and suspended by shaking.
