| Research Abstract |
In this study, we observed nucleation and crystal growth processes of the charged colloid by using an inverted microscope. The micrographs were taken at 60 fps. By using the obtained images, the crystallization degree of the colloid were visualized, and the particle motions of the lattice vibration were analyzed. Furthermore, we could observe the inclusion and the exclusion process of the impurity particle into/from the crystal lattice structure.
