NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, published in Chem, provides a simple and reversible method for forming ...

The BeNano 180 Zeta Pro features a 671 nm solid-state laser with a power of 50 mW. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is performed by collecting scattered light signals from the sample at 90° or 173°. The ...

Holographic microscopy has emerged as a powerful technique for the quantitative three‐dimensional characterisation of colloidal particles. By utilising a coherent light source to generate interference ...

In the early 2000s, scientists from the UK made a worrisome discovery that the oceans are teeming with small particles of plastic (less than one millimeter in length) due to the continuous degradation ...

Occasionally referred to as ‘colloidal gold,’ gold colloid is a suspension comprising sub-micron gold nanoparticles suspended in a solvent - most commonly water. Gold nanoparticles' distinct ...

Silicon oxides such as SiO 2 are the most abundant component of the earth’s crust. They can be found in nature in crystalline form and are industrially manufactured in many forms, including colloidal ...
