Abstract
A special-purpose cuvette assembly with features that create a small, restricted volume to minimize bulk movements of liquid and minimize backscattering-induced broadening of light. The special-purpose cuvette assembly enables recording of Brownian movements of nanoparticles in a liquid when it is placed in a suitable optical device comprising a light sheet and an optical microscope attached to a video camera that is oriented in a direction perpendicular to the light-sheet plane.
