• Insights into phase transition kinetics from colloid science (2002, neutral): “Using confocal microscopy, Gasser et al. 3 have observed elliptical nuclei (Fig.”
• Assembly and phase transitions of colloidal crystals (2016, background): “Second, tunable colloids are required when the metastable parent phase is ordered (for example, during melting [10, 67]), but not for a disordered parent phase (for example, brute force can break crystals into supercooled liquids, which can equilibrate back via crystallization without tuning [130]).”
• Principles of crystal nucleation and growth (2003, background): “Another example of nucleus visualization comes from studies of a crystallizing suspension of colloid particles in a specially selected organic solvent (Gasser et al. 2001).”
