Aqueous suspensions of highly charged polystyrene particles with different volume fractions have been investigated for structural ordering and phase behavior using static light scattering (SLS) and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). Under deionized conditions, suspensions of high-charge-density colloidal particles remained disordered whereas suspensions of relatively low charge density showed crystallization by exhibiting iridescence for the visible light. Though for the unaided eye crystallized suspensions appeared homogeneous, SLS measurements and CLSM observations have revealed their inhomogeneous nature in the form of the coexistence of voids with dense ordered regions. CLSM investigations on disordered suspensions showed their inhomogeneous nature in the form coexistence of voids with dense disordered (amorphous) regions. Our studies on highly charged colloids confirm the occurrence of gas-solid transition and are in accordance with predictions of Monte Carlo simulations using a pair-potential having a long-range attractive term [Mohanty, P. S.; Tata, B. V. R. J. Colloid Interface Sci. 2003, 264, 101]. On the basis of our experimental and simulation results, we argue that the reported reentrant disordered state [Yamanaka et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 1998, 80, 5806 and Toyotama et al. Langmuir 2003, 19, 3236] in charged colloids observed at high charge densities is a gas-solid coexistence state.
