Correlation Function Profile Analysis in Laser Light Scattering I. General Review on Methods of Data Analysis

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Science Institutes Series ((NSSA,volume 59))

Abstract

We present a general review on methods of correlation function profile analysis in photon correlation spectroscopy. The limited. objectives are: (1) to emphasize the interactive nature of experimental measurements, data analysis and theory, (2) to provide simple basic equations with a minimum of mathematical details for the different methods of data analysis, and (3) to summarize some useful relations between methods of data analysis and model fitting including molecular polydispersity.
