Slow vertical deposition of colloidal crystals: a Langmuir-Blodgett process?
For an evaporating colloidal suspension in which the evaporation velocity exceeds the sedimentation velocity, particles will accumulate at the solvent-air interface. If neither diffusion nor convection can disperse this accumulation, it is expected to grow into a colloidal multilayer several microns thick. We observe that the thickness of colloidal crystals vertically deposited from 1 mum diame...
متن کاملPlanar magnetic colloidal crystals.
We report a novel form of planar magnetic colloidal crystals formed by coated magnetic microspheres floating on a liquid meniscus. Under an external magnetic field, the balance between the repulsive magnetic interaction and the "attractive" interaction, due to the weight of the particles projected along the surface tangent, yields not only the triangular lattice with a variable lattice constant...
متن کاملMicrocontact printing of colloidal crystals.
Patterned two-dimensional (2D) colloidal crystals have been transferred by a modified mucp technique that was based on the use of polymer film as "glue" to provide an efficient interaction between the microsphere "ink" and substrate. The versatility of this method has been demonstrated by the patterning of colloidal crystal on a nonplanar substrate and heterogeneously structured colloidal cryst...
متن کاملVideo microscopy of colloidal suspensions and colloidal crystals
Colloidal suspensions are simple model systems for the study of phase transitions. Video microscopy is capable of directly imaging the structure and dynamics of colloidal suspensions in different phases. Recent results related to crystallization, glasses, and 2D systems complement and extend previous theoretical and experimental studies. Moreover, new techniques allow the details of interaction...
متن کاملTaylor instabilities in colloidal crystals
2014 Recently we have developed a Couette viscosimeter for studying the shearing of colloidal crystals. We report here that with increasing shear rate the colloidal crystal melts (for 03C9crit) and above a critical shear rate, 03C9T0, Taylor instabilities develop. After stopping the shearing flow the suspension recrystallizes in a special texture which preserves the pattern of the Taylor rolls....
