Reduced transport velocity of multiply scattered light due to resonant scattering.
The transport properties of photons traveling through random media are of great fundamental and applied importance. For instance the dwell time due to resonant Mie scattering can lead to a significant reduction in transport velocity. Here, we have measured directly the energy-transport velocity of photons in strongly scattering media using a combination of time resolved transmission, measuring ...
متن کاملLiquid transport due to light scattering.
Using experiments and theory, we show that light scattering by inhomogeneities in the index of refraction of a fluid can drive a large-scale flow. The experiment uses a near-critical, phase-separated liquid, which experiences large fluctuations in its index of refraction. A laser beam traversing the liquid produces a interface deformation on the scale of the experimental setup and can cause a l...
متن کاملAcousto-optic tomography with multiply scattered light
We have investigated the modulation of the optical field transmitted through a colloid of polystyrene spheres by a narrow quasi-cw ultrasound beam. Measurements of the scale dependence of the heterodyne modulation signal at the acoustic frequency are obtained for samples that are up to 140 scattering lengths thick. A calculation of the modulation signal predicts the possibility of tomographic i...
متن کاملPhotoacoustic effect for multiply scattered light.
We consider the photoacoustic effect for multiply scattered light in a random medium. Within the accuracy of the diffusion approximation to the radiative transport equation, we present a general analysis of the sensitivity of a photoacoustic wave to the presence of one or more small absorbing objects. Applications to tumor detection by photoacoustic imaging are suggested.
متن کاملUltrasonic modulation of multiply scattered coherent light: an analytical model for anisotropically scattering media.
In this work, we have calculated analytically the temporal autocorrelation function of the electrical field component of multiply scattered coherent light transmitted through an anisotropically scattering media irradiated with a plane ultrasonic wave. The accuracy of the analytical solution is verified with an independent Monte Carlo simulation for different values of the ultrasonic and optical...
