The long-time diffusion coefficients were measured along the long ($D_a$) and short ($D_b$) ellipsoid axes, respectively, and the ratio, $D_a/D_b$, was determined as a function of wall confinement and particle aspect ratio. In three-dimensions this ratio ($D_a/D_b$) cannot be larger than two, but wall confinement was found to substantially alter diffusion anisotropy and substantially slow particle diffusion along the short axis.6 pages, 9 figuresSoft Condensed Mattertext
