摘要
The uniform and transparent texture of colloidal crystals produced by generating a flow of a suspension in a flat capillary cell is examined by the transmitted Kossel line analysis. The colloidal crystals show clear Kossel patterns which are successfully explained by an fee structure with (I I I) twin-stacking faults. The present results indicate that the flow-aligned texture of colloidal crystals has a single-crystal line structure with a fixed orientation.
