Abstract

Two-stage kinetics of single-chain collapse was clearly observed by using a thinnest capillary-tube cell with a wall thickness of 0.01 mm and a diameter of 5 mm for dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. Two relaxation times, τ_crum for the crumpled globule state and τ_eq, for the compact globule state, were determined for the first time. Experimental DLS data measured in the coil-to-globule transition were compared with theoretical predictions.
