This presentation deals with an area of materials science,

which is causing a great deal of excitement for academic

and practical reasons, that is, with the so called monodis-

persed colloids. While the subject is an old one, dating

back to Faraday’s gold sols [1], it has become a topic of

wide-spread interest only relatively recently.
