Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To visualize concentration fluctuation and spatial heterogeneity, thermal motion of the probe particles dispersed in various systems has been analyzed. As a result, they were spatially heterogeneous in terms of the physical properties. Also, the solidification process such as sol-to-gel transition was accompanied by the changes in the extent and the length scale of the heterogeneity. Such a change in the heterogeneity was related to the bulk mechanical properties of the resultant materials.
