Abstract
Photon correlation spectroscopy autocorrelation spectra were measured for g old nanocrystal superlattice colloids under several intensities of an incid ent laser beam. Thermal blooming in the colloid shifted the correlation spe ctra toward smaller times. A second cumulant term in the fitting curve prov ed effective to correct for the thermal blooming effect to yield the correc t particle size. (C) 1999 Optical Society of America.
