The spectro-angular light scattering measurements of individual microscopic objects are presented. Using spectroscopic quantitative phase microscopy and Fourier transform light scattering, the 2D angle-resolved light scattering intensity and phase patterns are measured in a spectral range of 450-750 nm and an angular range of -70-70°. The spectro-angular light scattering measurements of individ...

In this study, we present experimental evidence showing that coccoliths have light-scattering anisotropy that contributes to a possible control of solar light exposure in the ocean. Changing the angle between the incident light and an applied magnetic field causes differences in the light-scattering intensities of a suspension of coccoliths isolated from Emiliania huxleyi. The magnetic field ef...

A method for time-resolved recording of light scattering in thin, highly scattering media is described. Subpicosecond pulses from a high-power Ti:sapphire laser are used, and single-shot recordings of the scattered light are made with a fast streak camera. The method is applied to the study of light scattering in paper, and a 1-ps resolution is demonstrated. The dependence of the light scatteri...

Citrate-capped gold nanoparticles with different colours and diameters were prepared by the reduction of HAuCl4 using sodium citrate. With increasing the size of gold particles, the plasmon absorption peaks were shifted to longer wavelength and the intensity of resonance light scattering was enhanced. The resonance light scattering of gold nanoparticles in the range of 500–600nmwas quenched by ...

Light scattering for normal and cataractous lenses from 21-86 yr old donors was measured in vitro. As expected, scattering increased with severity of cataract. Scattering decreased with angle according to a power law. This corresponded to the power law finding for functional straylight measurements in early-cataract patients using white light (power around -2). In vitro, straylight increased mo...

Two-dimensional angle-resolved light scattering maps of individual rod-shaped bacteria are measured at the single-cell level. Using quantitative phase imaging and Fourier transform light scattering techniques, the light scattering patterns of individual bacteria in four rod-shaped species (Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus casei, Synechococcus elongatus, and Escherichia coli) are measured with u...

We propose a new method to analyze scattering light transport in homogeneous translucent media. The incident light undergoes multiple bounces in translucent media, and produces a complex light field. Our method analyzes the light transport in two steps. First, single and multiple scatterings are separated by projecting high-frequency stripe patterns. Then, the light field for each bounce scatte...
