Recently we have developed a Couette viscosimeter for studying the shearing of colloidal crystals. We report here that with increasing shear rate the colloidal crystal melts (for ωcrit) and above a critical shear rate, ωT0, Taylor instabilities develop. After stopping the shearing flow the suspension recrystallizes in a special texture which preserves the pattern of the Taylor rolls. This texture determines the configuration of Taylor instabilities in subsequent flow experiments.Nous avons développé récemment un viscosimètre de Couette pour l'étude des cristaux colloidaux sous cisaillement. Nous avons observé que, dans un premier temps, lors de l'accroissement du cisaillement, le cristal fond, puisque au-dessus d'un seuil critique se dévelo...
