Scattering Solutions, Inc. is an innovator in developing innovative optical technologies with vast commercial potential. Our scientists and engineers are widely recognized experts in optics, particle characterization, surface science, software development, and instrumentation. We also maintain an active interest in biological and medical sciences, working closely with our partner, ANALIZA, Inc.

With initial funding from the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, Scattering Solutions has developed new approaches for colloid characterization based on Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) principles, interface characterization of fluids based on Surface Light Scattering Spectroscopy, and signal processing based on auto- and cross-correlation techniques. We work with scientists in academia (e.g., Case Western Reserve University, NYU, Harvard, University of Pennsylvania, University of California, University at Albany, Alfred University), at major consumer product companies (e.g, Proctor & Gamble, Akzo Nobel), at pharmaceutical firms (Elan, Regeneron, Analiza) and smaller consulting firms (Frequency Science, Canonical Consulting).

Scattering Solutions provides consultation and contract research, from which we derive many new ideas. The solution of challenging problems presented to us by the research and manufacturing communities drives much of our research effort. Ultimately, the goal is to commercialize product - bringing new technologies and affordable devices to assist R&D, resolve manufacturing issues, and provide students, technicians, scientists and engineers with tools to better understand complex issues in particle characterization and surface science. Tangential and innovative applications will emerge that both expand and open new markets.
