Conventional optical photolithography is used to create photoresist patterns on a preformed silica colloidal crystal film. Upon regrowth of the same silica colloidal crystal followed by removal of the photoresist patterns, air–core line defects are successfully introduced into the self‐assembled silica colloidal crystal (see Figure and inside cover).
