摘要
The dynamics of a hierarchical colloid solution, dendrimer in methanol, has been studied using photon-correlation spectroscopy (PCS). The obtained relaxation curves are analyzed accordihg to the mode-coupling theory (MCT). The main results are: i) the occurrence of a fragile to strong dynamical crossover as a function of the packing fraction at phi(c) similar or equal to 0.39, and ii) the observation of a secondary relaxation (beta) that has its onset just at the dynamical crossover and is correlated with the primary alpha-relaxation. Finally we discuss the obtained findings in comparison with recent experiments in similar systems characterized by an attractive interaction obtaining a confirmation on the primary role of the dynamical crossover in the physics of the dynamical arrest.
