In this paper, basing on the thorough comparison of the size measurement results obtained by Laser Diffraction (LD) and microscopic methods, we demonstrate the LD method to provide reliable and accurate data on the lateral size of two-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) platelets. Taking cue from the experimental study and theoretical calculations of scattering patterns, model accounting for arising of diffraction pattern that can be correctly processed with common LD instrumentation is suggested.
