Numerical simulation of Gaussian beam scattering by complex particles of arbitrary shape and structure

An efficient numerical method based on the surface integral equations is introduced to simulate the scattering of Gaussian beam by complex particles that consist of an arbitrarily shaped host particle and multiple internal inclusions of arbitrary shape. In particular, the incident focused Gaussian beam is described by the Davis fifth-order approximate expressions in combination with rotation defined by Euler angles. The established surface integral equations are discretized with the method of moments, where the unknown equivalent electric and magnetic currents induced on the surfaces of the host particle and the internal inclusions are expanded using the Rao–Wilton–Glisson (RWG) basis functions. The resultant matrix equations are solved by using the parallel conjugate gradient method. The proposed numerical method is validated and its capability illustrated in several characteristic examples.     

Gaussian beam scattering by a chiral sphere

Based on the generalized Lorenz–Mie theory that provides the general framework, an analytic solution to Gaussian beam scattering by a chiral sphere is constructed, by expanding the incident Gaussian beam, scattered fields and internal fields in terms of spherical vector wave functions. The unknown expansion coefficients are determined by a system of equations derived from the boundary conditions. For a localized beam model, numerical results of the normalized differential scattering cross section are presented.     

Observations and calculations of two-dimensional angular optical scattering (TAOS) patterns of a single levitated cluster of two and four microspheres

We use single bi-sphere particles levitated in an electrodynamic balance to record two-dimensional angular scattering patterns at different angles of the coordinate system of the aggregate relative to the incident laser beam. Due to Brownian motion the particle covers the whole set of possible angles with time and allows to select patterns with high symmetry for analysis. These are qualitatively compared to numerical calculations. A small cluster of four spheres shows complex scattering patterns, comparison with computations suggest a low compactness for these clusters. An experimental procedure is proposed for studying restructuring effects occurring in mixed particles upon evaporation.     

Splitting of a surface plasmon polariton beam by chains of nanoparticles

The operation of a micro-optical beam splitter for surface plasmon polaritons (SPP’s) formed by lined up scatterers is modeled and studied in the framework of a vectorial dipolar approach for multiple SPP scattering by equivalent non-spherical nanoparticles. It is shown that the inclusion of anisotropic polarizability of individual scatterer in the vectorial dipolar model of multiple SPP scattering allows one to obtain, in some cases, quantitative agreement between modeling and experimental results. As an example, we apply this approach to model an SPP beam-splitter formed by a chain of spheroidal particles. The dependencies of the splitting efficiency on the shape of particles, the incidence angle and the waist of an incident SPP Gaussian beam are considered. It is found that the efficiency is very sensitive to the shape of scatterers and the angle of SPP beam incidence. Comparison of numerical results with experimental data shows good agreement with respect to the particle shape and incident angular dependences. PACS 02.70.-c; 71.36.+c; 78.68.+m     

A review of the numerical investigation on the scattering of Gaussian beam by complex particles

The study of light scattering by various particles is an active and important subject of research with myriad practical applications. During the years the scattering of plane wave by various particles has been investigated extensively. In recent years, with the development of laser sources and the tremendous expansion of their application, there has been a growing interest in the study of light scattering by various particles illuminated by a focused Gaussian beam. Since the analytical methods are only suitable for the analysis of Gaussian beam scattering by some regular particles, for complex particles with arbitrary shape and structure, one has to resort to the numerical methods. In this article, we review the recent numerical investigation on the scattering of Gaussian beam by systems of complex particles, including arbitrarily shaped conducting particles, dielectric particles, composite particles with inclusions, as well as random discrete particles and fractal soot aggregates. The essential formulations of the proposed numerical methods are outlined and the numerical results for some complex particles are also presented. This review is expected to provide useful help for the study of the interaction between the laser beams and the complex particles.     

Optimum and standard beam widths for numerical modeling of interface scattering problems

Gaussian beams provide a useful insonifying field for surface or interface scattering problems such as encountered in electromagnetics, acoustics and seismology. Gaussian beams have these advantages: (i) They give a finite size for the scattering region on the interface. (ii) The incident energy is restricted to a small range of grazing angles. (iii) They do not have side lobes. (iv) They have a convenient mathematical expression. The major disadvantages are: (i) Insonification of an interface is nonuniform. The scattered field will depend on the location of the scatterers within the beam. (ii) The beams spread, so that propagation becomes an integral component of the scattering problem. A standard beam parameterization is proposed which keeps propagation effects uniform among various models so that the effects of scattering only can be compared. In continuous wave problems, for a given angle of incidence and incident amplitude threshold, there will be an optimum Gaussian beam which keeps the insonified area as small as possible. For numerical solutions of pulse beams, these standard parameters provide an estimate of the smallest truncated domain necessary for a physically meaningful result.
