Coarsening and solidification via solvent-annealing in thin liquid films

We examine solidification in thin liquid films produced by annealing amorphous Alq[subscript 3] (tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminium) in methanol vapour. Micrographs acquired during annealing capture the evolution of the film: the initially-uniform film breaks up into drops that coarsen, and single...
