Mechanical oscillation accelerating nucleation and nuclei growth in hard-sphere colloidal glass
Abstract Crystallization from amorphous solids is generally caused by activating phonons in a wide frequency range during heat treatment. In contrast, the activation of phonons in a narrow frequency range using ultrasonic treatment also causes crystallization below the glass transition temperature....
