Crystallization kinetics in colloidal hard spheres by confocal microscopy — •Sahana Kale and Hans-Joachim Schoepe — University of Tuebingen, Germany

We study the homogeneous crystallization of meta-stable colloidal hard sphere fluids using laser scanning confocal microscopy. Direct imaging in three dimensions offers the unique possibility to observe crystal nucleation and growth on the particle level.

We present nucleation rate densities for various volume fraction in comparison with previous data from light scattering and simulation. In addition, we analyse the temporal evolution of the local structure of the crystallizing clusters.
