Abstract
Quasielastic-light-scattering measurements were made on microemulsions in which the apparent volume fraction of the microemulsion droplets was varied from 0.1 to 0.75. The density correlation function shows an exponential decay at short time but deviates from it at long time especially for intermediate . The initial decay rates of the correlation functions decrease steadily as a function of , reaching a minimum at , and increase thereafter. The overall time dependence of the correlation functions can be fitted by the function ; the exponent varies from 1 down to 0.66 and back up again to 0.9 over the range of .
