The discrete dipole approximation for periodic targets: I. theory and tests
The discrete-dipole approximation (DDA) is a powerful method for calculating absorption and scattering by targets that have sizes smaller than or comparable to the wavelength of the incident radiation. The DDA can be extended to targets that are singlyor doubly-periodic. We generalize the scattering amplitude matrix and the 4×4 Mueller matrix to describe scattering by singlyand doubly-periodic ...
متن کاملDiscrete-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 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...
