Gravitational Annealing of Colloidal Crystals

A silica colloidal crystal obtained by centrifugation at 9 G for 2 days in water was annealed by additional stronger centrifugation at 50 G for 5 days. The number of the striations observed in the colloidal crystal under crossed polarized light decreased at some parts in a growth container after add...
