This letter presents a new least-squares integration method of analysis for time-dependent correlation functions consisting of two exponentials. It also contains an investigation of the effect of sample time on the accuracy that can be achieved in a given intensity correlation measurement by means of 24- and 48-channel single-clipped photon-correlation spectrometers. Comparison is made with the least-squares normal equation method using experimental as well as simulated results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
