You may have noticed that the Zetasizer instrument range is available in two different optical configurations: the ‘traditional’ 90 degree setup and the ‘NIBS’ 173 degree setup. An obvious question for a dynamic light scattering (DLS) user is: “Will I get the same results…READ MORE >

Light scattering with the Zetasizer owes part of its success to the ease of use integral in its default DTS software. The intuitive windows environment lets you setup a measurement (either in “manual” or in “standard operating procedure” mode) and…READ MORE >

I was stuck in traffic on the M8 travelling between Edinburgh and Glasgow when a news item really pricked my ears up. Scientists from Edinburgh University’s school of GeoSciences have been investigating better ways of measuring the extent of ash…READ MORE >

Do refractive index and absorption matter for nanoparticles? Abstract: We discuss the refractive Index of Gold, Silver, Titanium and Other NanoParticles. In this post we also point out refractive index of some polymers. Finally, we look at whether the refractive…READ MORE >
