Size dependence of microprobe dynamics during gelation of a discotic colloidal clay

Soft materials, such as gels and colloidal glasses, often exhibit different rheological properties at bulk and microscopic scales as a result of their complex microstructure. This phenomenon has recently been demonstrated for a gel-forming aqueous dispersion of Laponite® clay [ Oppong et al. Phys. R...
