Grain-Boundary Roughening in Colloidal Crystals
In polycrystals, faceted grains may become round and rough at high temperatures. Such a roughening phenomenon remains poorly understood, partly because of the lack of experimental observations. Here, we directly visualize the roughening dynamics of grain boundaries inside thin-film colloidal crystal...
