Discrete-dipole approximation for scattering calculations
The discrete-dipole approximation (DDA) for scattering calculations, including the relationship between the DDA and other methods, is reviewed. Computational considerations, i.e., the use of complex-conjugate gradient algorithms and fast-Fourier-transform methods, are discussed. We test the accuracy of the DDA by using the DDA to compute scattering and absorption by isolated, homogeneous sphere...
متن کاملImprovements of the Discrete Dipole Approximation method
We report improvements in complex conjugate gradient algorithms applied to the discrete dipole approximation (DDA). It is shown that computational time is reduced by using the BiCGSTAB version of the CG algorithm, with diagonal left preconditioning.
متن کاملValidity criteria of the discrete dipole approximation.
There are two widely accepted restrictions on the application of the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) in the study of light scattering by particles comparable to the wavelength: (1) when considering dielectric particles, the size of the cells must satisfy the condition kd|m|<0.5, where k is the wavenumber, d is the size of the cells, and m is the complex refractive index of the constituent m...
متن کاملMagneto-optical light scattering from ferromagnetic surfaces
We have studied the optical and magneto-optical components of the light scattered by the surface of several Fe films with different morphologies. We present a method, based on the ratio between the optical and magneto-optical components of the scattered intensity, to discern the physical origin, either structural or magnetic corrugation, of the light scattered by these ferromagnetic surfaces. S...
متن کاملVector diffraction analysis by discrete-dipole approximation.
The discrete-dipole approximation is applied to vector diffraction analysis in a system with large-numerical-aperture (NA) optics and subwavelength targets. Distributions of light diffracted by subwavelength dielectric targets are calculated in a solid angle that corresponds to a NA of 0.9, and their dependence on incident polarization, target shape, and target size is studied. Electric field d...
