What Does PCS Stand For?
PCS stands for Photon Correlation Spectroscopy
Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (PCS) is an advanced optical technique used to measure the size and distribution of particles in suspension by analyzing fluctuations in scattered light. By tracking the temporal correlation of scattered light intensity, PCS provides precise measurements of particle dynamics and diffusion coefficients, making it valuable in fields such as materials science, biology, and pharmaceuticals for characterizing nanoparticles, colloids, and macromolecules.
