Abstract

Cracks, which appear due to shrinkage during drying of artificial opaline films, strongly limit the use of these materials. Crystallization on fluid substrates (liquid metals) is a way to circumvent this problem. By this method it is possible to prepare crack-free three-dimensional “monocrystals” with a very low defect density and the size in millimeters.
