The Possibilities of the Method of Depolarized Dynamic Scattering of Light for Determining the Geometrical Parameters of Nonspherical Nanoparticles

A method of multiangle depolarized dynamic scattering of light is considered which enables the length and diameter of nonspherical particles in the nanometer and submicron ranges to be determined. Its advantages and disadvantages compared with other possible methods of measuring the geometrical parameters are analyzed. Several ways in which the method and instruments can be improved and the development of calculation algorithms are considered.
