Conceptual diagram of a fluctuating fluorescence signal (A) as a function of time. The fluctuation of the signal is used to calculate the autocorrelation, G(τ), where τ is the lag time from the original signal. The amplitude of the autocorrelation function (typically G(0)) is inversely proportional to the average number of molecules in the probe volume (<N>).
