Modeling spot size variation FCS reports topography-induced apparent anomalous diffusion. (A) Mean transit times (±SD, n = 5) for varying spot sizes. Spot sizes are presented as multiples of the area of the reference spot size (FWHM of ∼200 nm) used in Figure 5C. (B) Scatter plot of the parameter α obtained from fitting the model A × sα to the data in panel (A) and the transit time at the reference spot size. The Pearson correlation coefficient for the two variables was −0.70 (p = 0.0044).
