The Spectral Analysis of Dynamic Laser Speckle Patterns Generated by Brownian Particle Suspensions: A Stroboscopic Effect Based Filtering Technique

Figure 4

(a) The frame-wise variance of the pixel-averaged intensity in the ROI versus the modulation frequency for 0.69 μm (open squares) and 2.08 μm (solid circulars) particles. The solid lines are the Lorenztian spectral functions generated by the curve fit. (b) The bandwidths of the power spectrums obtained from the curve fit versus the actual particle diameters. The error bars are the uncertainties in , produced by the least-square curve fitting procedure. The solid dots give the bandwidths obtained using the conventional intensity correlation analysis for dynamic speckle patterns recorded at a sampling rate of 120 Hz.
