Accurate and Rapid Sizing of C<sub>60</sub> Fullerene Particles
4 May 2018Ultra-small nanoparticles, such as quantum dots and fullerene molecules, are difficult to measure accurately in solution. In this application note, we demonstrate a way to exploit the dynamic light scattering capacities of DelsaMax PRO to accurately size low concentrations of fullerene nanoparticles solubilized in toluene.
