Abstract
We have developed an experimental method based on the visibility factor of light-scattering minima to obtain size-polydispersity information from cont aminants upon a flat substrate. We verify the method by using double-intera ction-model calculations and use this technique to examine experimentally t he radial variation of a micrometer-sized fiber and the size polydispersity of spherical particles upon a substrate.
