ABSTRACT:
A light scattering apparatus capable of measuring light scattering of opaque samples. In the apparatus, control section190controls an optical path length required for laser light output from laser light source210to being incident on a sample and then outgoing as scattered light to approximate by zero. Detector330detects outgoing scattered light to output as a photon pulse. Pulse interval measurer350measures a time interval of the photon pulse output from detector330. An operator in computer360calculates an n-order correlation function (n1) using the time interval of the photon pulse measured in pulse interval measurer350.
