Validity 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 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 کاملRadiation forces in the discrete-dipole approximation.
The theory of the discrete-dipole approximation (DDA) for light scattering is extended to allow for the calculation of radiation forces on each dipole in the DDA model. Starting with the theory of Draine and Weingartner [Astrophys. J. 470, 551 (1996)] we derive an expression for the radiation force on each dipole. These expressions are reformulated into discrete convolutions, allowing for an ef...
متن کاملCalculation of the Induced Charge Distribution on the Surface of a Metallic Nanoparticle Due to an Oscillating Dipole Using Discrete Dipole Approximation method
In this paper, the interaction between an oscillating dipole moment and a Silver nanoparticle has been studied. Our calculations are based on Mie scattering theory and discrete dipole approximation(DDA) method.At first, the resonance frequency due to excitingthe localized surface plasmons has been obtained using Mie scattering theory and then by exciting a dipole moment in theclose proximity of...
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...
