First, ignore the empty reply - if it comes through. A mistype. But also don't forget Otto Reifenschweiler believed his experiments succeeded when colloidal chains of mono-crystalline Ti nanoparticles formed. There are lots of cracks and voids that can form and then disappear, so maybe that's relevant.
I quickly perused arxiv.org for some papers on properties of nano-colloids - these sound interesting: "Plasmonic Nanoparticle Networks for Light and Heat Concentration" http://arxiv.org/pdf/1203.0574v1.pdf "Phase transitions in nanoconfined binary mixtures of highly oriented colloidal rods" http://arxiv.org/pdf/1005.0345v1 - Lou Pagnucco Jojo Jaro wrote: > Interesting paper Lou. > > This is giving me some more to chew on.
