1 Light Scattering ndash Theoretical Background

11 Introduction

Light-wave interacts with the charges constituting a given molecule in remodelling the spatial charge distribution

Molecule constitutes the emitter of an electromagnetic wave of the same wavelength as the incident one (ldquoelastic scatteringrdquo)

E

sE

Wave-equation of oscillating electic fieldof the incident light

Particles larger than 20 nm (right picture) - several oscillating dipoles created simultaneously within one given particle- interference leads to a non-isotropic angular dependence of the scattered light

intensity - particle form factor characteristic for size and shape of the scattering particle- scattered intensity I ~ NiMi

2Pi(q) (scattering vector q see below)

Particles smaller than 20 (left picture) - scattered intensity independent of scattering angle I ~ NiMi

Particles in solution show Brownian motion (D = kT(6hR) and ltDr(t)2gt=6Dt)THORN Interference pattern and resulting scattered intensity fluctuate with time

THORN Change in respective particle positions leads to changes in interparticular () interference and therefore temporal fluctuations in the scattered intensity detected at given scattering angle (s Static Structurefactor ltS(q)gt Dynamic Lightscattering S(qt) (DLS))

Scattered light wave emitted by one oscillating dipole

Light source I0 = laser focussed monochromatic coherent

Coherent the light has a defined oscillation phase over a certain distance (05 ndash 1 m) and time so it can show interference Note that only laser light is coherent in time soNo laser =gt no dynamic light scattering

Light Scattering Setup of the F-Practical Course PhysChem Mainz

Scattering volume defined by intersection of incident beam and optical aperture of the detection opticsvaries with scattering angle

Important scattered intensity has to be normalized

Scattering from dilute solutions of very small particles (ldquopoint scatterersrdquo)(eg nanoparticles or polymer chains smaller than 20)

Particles in solution show Brownian motion (D = kT(6hR) and ltDr(t)2gt=6Dt)THORN Interference pattern and resulting scattered intensity fluctuate with time

THORN Change in respective particle positions leads to changes in interparticular () interference and therefore temporal fluctuations in the scattered intensity detected at given scattering angle (s Static Structurefactor ltS(q)gt Dynamic Lightscattering S(qt) (DLS))

Due to interparticle interactions the particles not any longer move independentlyby Brownian motion only Therefore DLS in this case measures no self-diffusioncoefficient but a collective diffusion coefficient defined as Dc(q) = DsS(q)
