The alignments of silica particles formed in sinusoidal electrical fields of 1 kHz were assessed using an optical microscope with measuring the electric conductance of a silica dispersion between two Pt electrodes in a vitreous silica glass cell. We confirmed that the electric conductance of the silica dispersion between the two electrodes in the cell reflected the surface conductance of the silica particles settling at the bottom of the cell. More interestingly, we observed that the electric conductance of the silica dispersion in the cell increased when pearl chains of the silica particle were formed along the direction of the electric field. However, no clear change in the electric conductance of the dispersion was observed at higher electric field strengths where a transition from pearl chains to zigzag band patterns and circulating movements of the silica particles in the zigzag bands formed.
