\arraystretch both horizontally and vertically

I did an \arraystretch to get taller column vectors, but not the matrices are too small. How can I also stretch them horizontally so that the matrices become square-like again?

Here's the code I used:

\renewcommand*{\arraystretch}{1.8}

You have to act on \arraycolsep, which is a length. – egreg May 01 '14 at 22:08
so something like: `\renewcommand*{\arraycolsep}{1.8}' ? – Physics_maths May 01 '14 at 22:09

It's a length, so \setlength{\arraycolsep}{<length>} – egreg May 01 '14 at 22:09
In the preamble? Why not write it down, I'll accept it as an answer? – Physics_maths May 01 '14 at 22:10

Not without a sensible example. – egreg May 01 '14 at 22:10

Hmm. well I just want "whiter" matrices, i.e. with more white space inside them. But I'm afraid \arraycolsep will change other lengths too. – Physics_maths May 01 '14 at 22:12
