Numerical simulations of light scattering by a biconcave shaped human red blood cell (RBC)
are carried out using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. A previously …

Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles exhibit broad optical resonances that have been assigned to
so-called localized surface plasmons (LSPs). The resonance's energy varies with particle …

Metal nanostructured materials, with many excellent and unique physical and mechanical
properties compared to macroscopic bulk materials, have been widely used in the fields of …

This study reports on the development of bulk single-scattering models for ice clouds that
are appropriate for use in hyperspectral radiative transfer cloud modeling over the spectral …

Electromagnetic (EM) beams with orbital angular momentum (OAM) may have great
potential applications in communication technology and in remote sensing of the Earth …

Electromagnetic (EM) scattering by particles in an absorbing host medium is frequently
encountered in practical applications, which makes the conventional EM scattering theory …

We report an intrinsic image distortion in microwave-induced thermoacoustic tomography.
The distortion, due to microwave diffraction in the object to be imaged, leads to nonuniform …

The formulation of the finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) approach is presented in the
framework of its potential applications to in‐vivo flow cytometry based on light scattering …

For many practical radiative transfer problems in dispersed media, the host medium
surrounding the particles is absorbing rather than lossless, therefore it may lead to …

As fundamental parameters for polarized-radiative-transfer calculations, the single-
scattering phase matrix of irregularly shaped aerosol particles must be accurately modeled …
