A dynamic laser light scattering system has been constructed using a personal computer. The intensity of the scattered light was detected with a photomultiplier tube and a photon counter. The BCD output of the photon counter which is proportional to the intensity of scattered light is fed into a personal computer via an interface card. The personal computer was programmed as an autocorrelator in machine language. The data acquisition rate of the system was about 600 samples/s which is adequate for studies on the molecular dynamics of concentrated polymer solutions, polymer latices with large particle size, and polymer glass systems. The constructed system was tested with polystyrene latex and the measured diameter of the latex particle agrees well with the supplier's value.

A laser mesurement system, a modified Michelson interferometer,which can accurately measure high speed length and position of servomechanisms by detecting a phase shift in the measurement beam using an optical interference was developed. A frequency stabilized laser source and a 20 fold frequency interpolation and digitizing circuit were applied to the system. The refractive index of the ambient air was calibrated through the Edlen's formula. The system achieved a resolution of .lambda./40,16nm, a maximum allowable measurement speed of 600 mm/sec, and a length measurement range of 1500mm. Performance of the system was evaluated on the machining center in short and long length measurements

A laser measurement system, a modified Michelson interferometer, which can accurately measure high speed length and displacement of servomechanisms by detecting a phase shift in the measurement beam using an optical interference was developed. A frequency stabilized laser source and a 20 fold frequency interpolation and digitizing circuit were applied to the system. The refra- ctive index of the ambient air was calibrated through the Edlens formula. The system achieved a resolution of /40, 16nm, a maximum allow-able measurement speed of 600nm/sec, and a length measure- ment range of 1500 mm. Performance of the system was evaluated on the machining center in short and long length measurements.
