CVs of ferrocene methanol (1 mM) in 0.1 M KCl at 0.1 V/s. (a) Red: bare gold, blue: silica film/sphere-coated electrode with many defects in the colloidal crystal, and black: silica film/sphere-coated electrode with fewer defects in the colloidal crystal. (b) Red: bare gold, blue: after sphere removal via soaking in chloroform for 3 hrs, and black: after particle growth for 45 minutes.
