Article Synopsis
- The study explores how evaporation in a microfluidic device allows for the concentration of nanoparticle dispersions, resulting in the formation of solid nanoparticle structures that fill the device.
- The growth process is influenced by evaporation-induced flow and specific system parameters, leading to two main types of growth limitations: evaporation-limited and transport-limited.
- Additionally, the research highlights the importance of ensuring colloidal stability during the preparation of the initial dispersion, suggesting that certain ionic impurities can destabilize the suspension and affect the final structure of the solid formed.
