Laser light-scattering studies of bacteriophage PM2 DNA showed the molecule to have mol.wt. 5.9 } 10(6) and root-mean -square radius 125 nm at an ionic strength of 0.2 mol/litre. Computer-generated curves compatible with these data were compared with the experimental interference curve for several structural models of the molecules. The data fit best to an asymmetric four-armed planar molecule in which all four arms emerge from or close to the one area of the molecule. This contrasts with the smaller DNA molecules investigated, which have shown a three-armed molecule, whose symmetry varies with primary structure.

A design for a flow-field-flow-fractionation with UV/VIS-, fluorescence- and laser-light-scattering-detectors is presented and tested with extracts from a humus rich horizon of a gleyic podzol. It is tested to show how the system can retrieve relevant information about changes in the constitution of the colloid samples. The main objective is the investigation of colloid alteration during processes provoked by main geochemical driving forces (e.g. pH or ionic strength), in this case changes of redox potential. Therefore fluorescence- and UV/VIS-fractograms are taken at different wavelengths and compared. Particle diameters of natural colloids are calculated from laser-light-scattering data and compared with reference standards.

AbstractIn-situ dual-wavelength ellipsometry and laser light scattering have been used to monitor growth of Si/Si1−x,Gex heterojunction bipolar transistor and multi-quantum well (MQW) structures. The growth rate of B-doped Si0 8Ge0.2 has been shown to be linear, but that of As-doped Si is non-linear, decreasing with time. Refractive index data have been obtained at the growth temperature for x = 0.15, 0.20, 0.25. Interface regions ∼ 6-20Å thickness have been detected at hetero-interfaces and during interrupted alloy growth. Period-to-period repeatability of MQW structures has been shown to be ±lML.
