Absorption of electromagnetic radiation by a cylindrical metal particle

The cross section of the absorption of electromagnetic radiation by a cylindrical metal particle is calculated. The calculation is performed in the low-frequency limit, in which the contribution of eddy currents to the absorption dominates, and for comparatively small particles (with radii of ≈10 nm), which allows us to neglect the skin effect. The case when the mean free path of electrons in the metal bulk substantially exceeds the radius of the cylindrical particle is considered in detail. The specific absorption cross sections for spherical and cylindrical particles are compared.     

Propagation of Airy-Gaussian beams in a quadratic-index medium

The propagation properties of the Airy-Gaussian beams are introduced in a quadratic-indexmedium analytically and numerically. The linear momentum, the beam width, the beam centerof the Airy-Gaussian beam are analyzed. The Airy-Gaussian beam shape and curvature repeatsitself at intervals proportional to \hbox{$1/\sqrt{az_{R}}$}1/azRdue to the potential barrier. The bend (the transversely acceleration) and the periodicityof the Airy-Gaussian beam depend on the parameters χ ₀ anda z _R .     

Acoustic radiation from a shell-encapsulated baffled cylindrical cap

An exact study of radiation of an acoustic field due to radial/axial vibrations of a baffled cylindrical piston, eccentrically positioned within a fluid-filled thin cylindrical elastic shell, into an external fluid medium is presented. This configuration, which is a realistic idealization of a liquid-filled cylindrical acoustic lens with a focal point inside the lens when used as a sound projector, is of practical importance with a multitude of possible applications in underwater acoustics and ocean engineering. The formulation utilizes the appropriate wave field expansions along with the translational addition theorems for cylindrical wave functions to develop a closed-form solution in the form of an infinite series. Numerical results reveal the key effects of excitation frequency, cap angle, radiator position (eccentricity), dynamics of the elastic shell, and cap surface velocity distribution on sound radiation.

Axial radiation force exerted by general non-diffracting beams

The axial radiation force exerted by a general non-diffracting beam on an object of arbitrary shape in lossless medium is analyzed. The object may be on or off the beam's axis. The analysis is based on the plane-wave representation of the beam using an azimuthal function and conical angle. The analytical expression relates the force to axial projections of the extracted and scattered momentum. Using an extended optical theorem, the extinction is related to the scattering at the forward direction of the beam's plane wave components. The axial force is expressed using the scattering amplitude and known angular functions.

Bessel驻波对椭球形液滴的声辐射转矩

在实际的声操控中,由于声辐射力、表面张力和重力的共同作用,液滴往往呈现出椭球的形状,在螺旋声场中会受到力矩的作用而发生转动。从声波的散射理论出发,根据部分波展开法求解得到了椭球形液滴在Bessel驻波场中的声散射系数,并给出了其受到的声辐射转矩的解析式。在此基础上,对椭球形不可压缩液滴和椭球形可压缩液滴分别进行数值计算。仿真结果表明,不可压缩液滴的声辐射转矩与声束半锥角的关系更密切,而可压缩液滴则更依赖于特定的频率;提升Bessel驻波场的阶数有利于增强声辐射转矩的峰值,但在中低频处较难对可压缩液滴产生明显的力矩。该研究结果预期对利用螺旋声场进行液滴的操控具有理论指导作用。

Acoustic radiation force of a Bessel beam on a porous sphere

The possibility of using acoustic Bessel beams to produce an axial pulling force on porous particles is examined in an exact manner. The mathematical model utilizes the appropriate partial-wave expansion method in spherical coordinates, while Biot's model is used to describe the wave motion within the poroelastic medium. Of particular interest here is to examine the feasibility of using Bessel beams for (a) acoustic manipulation of fine porous particles and (b) suppression of particle resonances. To verify the viability of the technique, the radiation force and scattering form-function are calculated for aluminum and silica foams at various porosities. Inspection of the results has shown that acoustic manipulation of low porosity (<0.3) spheres is similar to that of solid elastic spheres, but this behavior significantly changes at higher porosities. Results have also shown a strong correlation between the backscattered form-function and the regions of negative radiation force. It has also been observed that the high-order resonances of the particle can be effectively suppressed by choosing the beam conical angle such that the acoustic contribution from that particular mode vanishes. This investigation may be helpful in the development of acoustic tweezers for manipulation of micro-porous drug delivery carrier and contrast agents.     

Absorption of electromagnetic radiation by a bimetallic cylindrical particle of finite length

The absorption cross section of electromagnetic radiation is calculated for a bimetallic cylindrical particle of finite length. A general case is considered, where the ratio of the radius of the particle core to the particle radius and the ratio of the radius of the particle to its length can take arbitrary values. The conditions of diffuse reflection of electrons from the internal and external surfaces of the metal shell of the particle and from its faces are used as the boundary conditions of the problem. The effect of the ratio of the radius of the core of a bimetallic cylindrical particle to the particle radius and the ratio of the radius of the particle to its length on the electromagnetic properties of the particle is analyzed.     

Acoustic radiation force on a multilayered sphere in a Gaussian standing field

We develop a model for calculating the radiation force on spherically symmetric multilayered particles based on the acoustic scattering approach. An expression is derived for the radiation force on a multilayered sphere centered on the axis of a Gaussian standing wave propagating in an ideal fluid. The effects of the sound absorption of the materials and sound wave on acoustic radiation force of a multilayered sphere immersed in water are analyzed, with particular emphasis on the shell thickness of every layer, and the width of the Gaussian beam. The results reveal that the existence of particle trapping behavior depends on the choice of the non-dimensional frequency ka, as well as the shell thickness of each layer. This study provides a theoretical basis for the development of acoustical tweezers in a Gaussian standing wave, which may benefit the improvement and development of acoustic control technology, such as trapping, sorting, and assembling a cell, and drug delivery applications.

Acoustic radiation generated by local excitation of submerged beams and strings

Free and forced motions of submerged one-dimensional waveguides have been investigated. Both the submerged beam and the submerged string can support a wave system which includes a pure surface wave in the fluid adjoining the waveguide, provided that certain conditions on the frequency (for the beam) or the physical parameters of the system (for the string) are satisfied. Dispersion curves are presented for steel beams and steel strings in water. Steady-state solutions have been derived for excitation by a concentrated time-harmonic load. The displacement responses at the point of application of the load and in the far field have been examined. Polar plots display and radiated far field in the fluid. At low frequencies the polar plots are circular in planes containing the waveguide, but the radiation pattern develops lobes as the frequency increases. Reflection, transmission and scattering into the fluid of an incident wave system by an elastic support of stiffness κ and mass m have also been examined, and the possibility of resonance phenomena has been investigated.     

Acoustic radiation force on a rigid cylinder near rigid corner boundaries exerted by a Gaussian beam field

Acoustic manipulation is one of the well-known technologies of particle control and a top research in acoustic field. Calculation of acoustic radiation force on a particle nearby boundaries is one of the critical tasks, as it approximates realistic applications. Nevertheless, it is quite difficult to solve the problem by theoretical method when the boundary conditions are intricate. In this study, we present a finite element method numerical model for the acoustic radiation force exerting on a rigid cylindrical particle immersed in fluid near a rigid corner. The effects of the boundaries on acoustic radiation force of a rigid cylinder are analyzed with particular emphasis on the non-dimensional frequency and the distance from the center of cylinder to each boundary. The results reveal that these parameters play important roles in acoustic manipulation for particle-nearby complicated rigid boundaries. This study verifies the feasibility of numerical analysis on the issue of acoustic radiation force calculation close to complex boundaries, which may provide a new idea on analyzing the acoustic particle manipulation in confined space.
