Abstract: Highly porous periodic structures consisting of a three-dimensional replica of pores in the initial opal lattice have been synthesized by high-temperature thermochemical treatment of opal matrices filled with carbon compounds, followed by dissolution of silicon dioxide. It has been shown that the main phases of the composite are carbon and silicon carbide. Based on the X-ray diffraction, Raman, and IR spectroscopy data, it has been assumed that the composite contains fragments of hexagonal diamond. The photoluminescence and optical reflection spectra of the composites have been measured.
