“…Due to this wake suppression, the vertical pairing in our experiments become insignificant, which ultimately paves the way for the formation of the square lattice in the complex plasma. In this situation, when the external confinement is decreased below a critical value via decreasing the discharge voltage, the out-of-plane mode of dust lattice wave becomes purely imaginary [21]. It induces a transverse instability in the system, making the structure unstable.…”
