3D rendering of an AFM image, depicting coerced coarsening of a nanoparticle assembly. The labyrinthine morphology results from solvent evaporation in the spinodal limit and is thus associated with a well-defined spatial correlation. Here, a striking delineation between the probe-coarsened region - following a total of 8 hours imaging - and the surrounding surface is observed.
