Supercooled dynamics of grain boundary particles in two-dimensional colloidal crystals.
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of particles constituting grain boundaries in a two-dimensional colloidal crystal, using video-microscopy. A clear plateau in the mean square displacement of the grain boundary particles is found, followed by an upswing indicative of cage breaking. The van...
