Disentangling kinetics from thermodynamics in heterogeneous colloidal systems

In heterogeneous colloidal systems, composition, shape, structure and physical properties result from the trade-off between thermodynamic and kinetic effects during nucleation and growth. Here, the authors demonstrate that kinetic and thermodynamic effects can be disentangled by careful selection of...
