Theory From the diffraction pattern to the particle-size
To obtain the particle size Fraunhofer and Mie theory are used. When a particle is lightened by a monochromatic source (laser source) a diffraction pattern called Airy s pattern is obtained at the infinity (see document n°1). This diffraction pattern gives the light scattering intensity I in function of the diffraction angle α.

Laser Diffraction Particle Size Analysis Malvern Panalytical
Laser diffraction measures particle size distributions by measuring the angular variation in intensity of light scattered as a laser beam passes through a dispersed particulate sample. Large particles scatter light at small angles relative to the laser beam and small particles scatter light at large angles.
