Colloidal Crystals of Spheres and Cubes in Real and Reciprocal Space

Colloidal Crystals of Spheres and Cubes in Real and Reciprocal Space by Janne-Mieke Meijer.

This thesis presents an in-depth study on the effect of colloidal particle shape and formation mechanism on self-organization and the final crystal symmetries that can be achieved. It demonstrates how state-of-the-art X-ray diffraction techniques can be used to produce detailed characterizations of...
