Abstract

The design criteria of an optical-fiber probe for Photon Correlation Spectroscopy are given. A merit factor is defined to evaluate the measurement efficiency, and a miniaturized probe comprising a circular array of optical fibers coupled to graded-index microlens is presented. The probe demonstrated to fit the most stringent optogeometric requirements, and has been used for controlling the production process of polystyrene particles.
