Highly ordered crystalline and amorphous Si nanoarrays have been formed by using self-assembled monolayer of polystyrene nanospheres as a template followed by dry ion etching treatments. The template was removed by annealing at 8°C and pattern transfer process was revealed by atomic force...

This work is a theoretical contribution to the understanding of the aggregation process in dilute colloidal suspensions. We employ Brownian dynamics simulations, with homodisperse solid spherical particles, neglecting hydrodynamic interactions between the particles. We study the influence of the...
