dynamic light scattering the method and some applications

Chapters address multicomponent mixtures, polyelectrolytes, dense polymer systems, gels, rigid rods, micellar systems and the application of dynamic light scattering to biological systems. Light scattering methods probe different length scales, in the ranges of 5-500& nbsp nm (DLS), or 0.1-5& nbsp m (Wide Angle SLS), or 1-100& nbsp m (Low Angle SLS), and some of them can be operated in a time-resolved mode, with the possibility of characterizing not only stationary, but also aggregating, polymerizing, or self. A secondary aim of the work is to illustrate the widely varying fields in which the technique finds application. Theoretical developments relating dynamic light scattering to the viscoelasticity of polymers in solution and in the bulk are described.

Globule size of microemulsions may also be measured by DLS technique. dynamic light scattering from polymer gels dynamic light scattering from rigid and nearly rigid rods light scattering in micellar systems critical dynamics of binary liquid mixtures and simple fluids studied using dynamic light scattering application of dynamic light scattering to biological systems diffusing-wave spectroscopy. Single photon correlation techniques are introduced a discussion of noise on photon correlation functions is given and data analysis in dynamic light scattering to polymer structure analysis is presented and a comprehensive introduction to diffusing wave spectroscopy is given. DLS is the ultimate tool to determine and measure the agglomeration state of nanoparticles. This volume is directed in part to the philosophy and current practice in dynamic light scattering. It can be employed on extremely small fluid volumes, the instrumentation is relatively inexpensive and allows the rapid determination of diffusion coefficients as well as providing information on relaxation time distributions for the macromolecular components of complex systems. The importance of the technique lies in its non-invasive character. Dynamic light scattering is a new method for investigating macromolecular systems.
