中文摘要：

胶态晶体作为一种新型材料被广泛关注,一般采用胶态粒子自组装的方法制备胶态晶体。聚苯乙烯（PS）微球是一种常见的胶态粒子,综述了PS微球自组装形成胶态晶体的常用方法,包括垂直沉积法、重力场沉积法、界面自组装法、旋涂法及物理限制法等,并对PS胶态晶体用作模板或掩膜制备纳米结构材料的进展进行了总结。

英文摘要：

Colloidal crystal has been attracted with considerable interest as a new material, and a common meth-od to prepare colloidal crystal is self-assembly of colloidal particles. Polystyrene （PS） microspheres are commoncolloidal particles, this paper reviews common methods for self-assembly of PS microspheres to prepare colloi-dal crystal, including vertical deposition, gravitational deposition, interracial self-assembling, spinning coatingand physical limitation, etc. Also, progress of preparation of nanostructure materials with PS colloidal crystalas template or mask is summarized.
