Colloidal liquid crystals: phase behavior, dynamics and confinement

<p>In this thesis, we report on the phase behaviour, dynamics and confinement of micron-sized colloidal silica rods with small gravitational length. In sedimentation-diffusion equilibrium, distinct isotropic, nematic, smectic and crystal phases are found to coexist within tens of micrometers....
