Scattering of shaped beam by a conducting infinite cylinder with dielectric coating

Based on the generalized Lorenz–Mie theory (GLMT), which provides the general framework and expansion of the incident shaped beam in terms of cylindrical vector wave functions, an analytic solution to the electromagnetic scattering by coated infinite cylinders is constructed for arbitrary incidence of a shaped beam. As an example, for a tightly focused Gaussian beam propagating perpendicularly to the cylinder axis, the scattering characteristics that obviously demonstrate the three-dimensional nature are described in detail, and numerical results of the normalized differential scattering cross section are evaluated.     

Scattering of gaussian beam by a ferrite cylinder

Scattering of a Gaussian beam by an anisotropically coated circular cylinder

A solution to the problem of Gaussian beam scattering by an anisotropically coated circular cylinder is presented. The incident Gaussian beam source is expanded as an approximate expression in the simple form with a Tayor’s series. The transmitted field in the anisotropically coated region is expressed as a infinite summation of eigen plane waves with different polar angles. The unknown coefficients of the scattered fields are obtained with the aid of the boundary conditions. The infinite series can be truncated under the prerequisite of achieving the solution convergence. Only the case of transverse-electric polarization is discussed. The similar formulation of transverse-magnetic polarization can be obtained by adopting the similar method. Some numerical results are presented and discussed. The result is in agreement with that available as expected when the Gaussian beam degenerates to a plane wave incidence case.     

Debye Series of Scattering by a Multi-Layered Cylinder in an Off-Axis 2D Gaussian Beam

The Debye series of light scattering by an infinite multi-layered cylinder in an off-axis 21） Gaussian beam is studied. A simplified but rigorous iterative formula for scattering coefficients is presented. The numerical calculations of scattering intensity by a cylinder in on-axis and off-axis beams are developed. It is indicated that the results of Debye series reach an agreement with those of generalized Lorenz-Mie theory and the off-axis distances vary the results to a great extent. The Debye series components of a two-layered cylinder are further discussed. The relations between them with rainbow phenomena are analysed.     

Scattering of a Gaussian electromagnetic beam by a thin semiconducting cylinder

The scattering of a three-dimensional Gaussian electromagnetic beam by a thin (compared to the wavelength) semiconducting cylinder of infinite length is considered. Expressions for the scattered field and for the current induced in the cylinder are obtained. A numerical analysis of the distribution of the secondary current along the cylinder axis was made. It is shown that the dependence of the induced current on the distance along the cylinder axis becomes Gaussian as the aperture of the incident beam is increased.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 1, pp. 78–80, January, 1991.     

Scattering of on-axis polarized Gaussian light beam by spheroidal water coating aerosol particle

Small particle light scattering can produce light with polarization characteristics different from those of the incident beam. An analytical solution to the scattering by a spheroid with inclusion for an on-axis polarized Gaussian beam incidence is provided within the generalized Lorenz-Mie theory framework. The shapes of the inclusion can be spherical, confocal spheroid, or non-confocal spheroid. The Muller scattering matrix elements are computed for plane wave incidence or Gaussian light beam incidence. The effect of the size and shape of the inclusion or the coating on the polarized Oaussian light scattering characteristics by a spheroidal water coating aerosol Darticle are commlted and a,nalvzed.

基于等效原理和互易性定理研究了两个靠近目标对平面波、高斯波束的光散射问题,给出了这一复合光散射模型的二阶散射结果。通常一阶散射结果容易求解,但由于耦合效应的复杂性,很难给出二阶散射结果的解析形式。为了解决这一问题,应用互易性定理给出了求解任意相邻介质目标二阶散射场的公式,同时借助等效原理将求解散射场公式中的体积分简化为面积分的形式,从而降低了求解难度。求解了两相邻球形粒子的复合散射场,并将求解结果与应用时域积分方程法求得的结果进行了比较。同时,还讨论了束腰半径、目标位置对散射截面及偏振度的影响。     

Electromagnetic scattering from two parallel 2D targets arbitrarily located in a Gaussian beam

In this paper based on the equivalence principle and the reciprocity theorem, the scattered field up to second-order by two parallel 2D targets arbitrarily located in a Gaussian beam is considered. The first-order solution can easily be obtained by calculating the scattered field from isolated targets when illuminated by a Gaussian beam. However, because of the difficulty in formulating the couple scattering field, it is almost impossible to find an analytical solution for the second-order scattered field if the shapes of 2D targets are not canonical geometries. In order to overcome this problem, in this paper, the second-order solution is derived by using the technique based on the reciprocity theorem and the equivalence principle. Meanwhile, the relation between the secondary scattered field from target #1 and target {\#}2 is obtained. Specifically, the bi- and mono-static scattering of Gaussian beam by two parallel adjacent inhomogeneous plasma-coated conducting circular cylinders is calculated and the dependence of attenuation of the scattering width on the thickness of the coated layer, electron number density, collision frequency and radar frequency is discussed in detail.     

Pseudo-Gaussian cylindrical acoustical beam – Axial scattering and radiation force on an elastic cylinder

Making use of the addition theorem for the cylindrical wave functions and the complex-source-point method in cylindrical coordinates, an exact solution to the Helmholtz equation is derived, which corresponds to a tightly focused (or collimated) cylindrical quasi-Gaussian beam with arbitrary waist. The solution is termed “quasi-Gaussian” to make a distinction from the standard Gaussian beam solution obtained in the paraxial approximation. The advantage of introducing this new solution is the efficient and fast computational modeling of tightly focused or quasi-collimated cylindrical wave-fronts depending on the dimensionless waist parameter kw₀, where k is the wavenumber of the acoustical radiation. Moreover, a closed-form partial-wave series expansion is obtained for the incident field, which has the property that the axial scattering (i.e. along the direction of wave propagation) and the axial acoustic radiation force (which is a time-averaged quantity) on a cylinder, can be calculated without any approximations in the limit of linear acoustical waves in a nonviscous fluid. Examples are found where the extinction in the radiation force function plot is found to be correlated with conditions giving reduction of the backscattering from an elastic cylinder. Those results are useful in beam-forming design, particle manipulation in acoustic tweezers operating with focused cylindrical beams, and the prediction of the scattering and radiation forces on a cylindrical particle or liquid bridges.     

Rainbow Scattering by an Inhomogeneous Cylinder with an Off-Axis Gaussian Beam Incidence at Normal

The problem of an off-axis Gaussian beam incident perpendicular on an infinitely long multi-layered cylinder is investigated. The efficient and accurate recursive algorithm for computing the scattering field is discussed. The stability of the numerical scheme allows us to extend the feasible range of computations, both in size parameter and in number of layers for a given size. Particular attention is paid to rainbow scattering of homogeneous and inhomogeneous fibers.     

Radiation pressure over dielectric and metallic nanocylinders on surfaces: polarization dependence and plasmon resonance conditions

Multiple scattering calculations of the electromagnetic force and the potential energy exerted by an evanescent field on a nanometric cylinder over a dielectric interface, as well as by a propagating Gaussian beam, are carried out. These calculations constitute a model that describes the gradient, scattering, and absorption components of the force in an elongated particle. The attractive or repulsive nature of the force is strongly dependent on the polarization of the incident field for a metallic particle, whereas a dielectric particle is only weakly attracted to high-intensity regions. Excitation of plasmon resonance in a metallic particle enhances both the scattering and the absorption components of the force, whereas it diminishes the gradient-force component.
