摘要：

Colloidal particles absorbed at the interface of a liquid droplet arrange into unique packings during slow evaporation [V. N. Manoharan , Science 301, 483 (2003)]. We present a numerical and theoretical analysis of the packing selection problem. The selection of a unique packing arises almost entirely from geometrical constraints during the drying.
