The cover shows a schematic of the optofluidic assembly of colloidal photonic crystals against a backdrop of arrays of blue, green, and red photonic spheres self‐organized by in situ photo‐induced solidification of crystalline colloidal arrays. This high‐throughput optofluidic technique can create various structural motifs in photonic crystals, report Seung‐Man Yang and co‐workers on p. 1649 ; an example is photonic Janus spheres, as highlighted on the cover.
