It remains extremely challenging to build three-dimensional photonic crystals with complete photonic bandgaps by simple and experimentally realizable colloidal building blocks. Here, we demonstrate that particle softness can enhance both the self-assembly of pyrochlore- and perovskite-like lattice structures from simple deformable triblock Janus colloids and their photonic bandgap performances. Dynamics simulation results show that the region of stability of pyrochlore lattices can be greatly expanded by appropriately increasing softness, and the perovskite lattices are unexpectedly obtained at enough high softness. Photonic calculations show that the direct pyrochlore lattices formed from overlapping soft triblock Janus particles exhibit even larger photonic bandgaps than the ideal nonoverlapping pyrochlore lattice, and proper overlap arising from softness can also dramatically improve the photonic properties of the inverse pyrochlore and perovskite lattices. Our study offers a new and feasible self-assembly path toward three-dimensional photonic crystals with large and robust photonic bandgaps.
