摘要
We use dynamic light scattering to measure the dynamic structure factor of density fluctuations occurring in colloidal suspensions that have attained a quiescent state long after aggregation. We find a stretched-exponential decay to a finite plateau. Our interpretation of the arrested decay is that these systems are gels, i.e., systems possessing a finite elastic modulus G. We develop a theory for the internal elastic modes of a fractal cluster and use it to derive G and the arrested, stretched-exponential behavior of colloidal gel dynamics. Good agreement between experiment and theory is obtained.
