surface points were used in shape reconstruction. The result of the shape reconstruction can be seen in Fig. 3.31, while in Figs. 3.32 and 3.33 the scattering diagrams of the original and the reconstructed cubes are plotted. There are only minor di erences in the backscattering region. The particle shapes have been discretized to a large number of surface patches by using a divide by four scheme and the Rational Reducer Professional software for grid reduction, so that there are finally 17,680 triangular faces with the reconstructed cube.

Scattering results for nonaxisymmetric particles using the superellipsoid as a model particle shape have been given by Wriedt [268]. The program SScaTT (Superellipsoid Scattering Tool) includes a small graphical user interface to generate various superellipsoid particle shape modes and is available

3.4 Inhomogeneous Particles

This section discusses numerical and practical aspects of T -matrix calculations for inhomogeneous particles. The flow diagram of the TINHOM routine is shown in Fig. 3.34. The program supports scattering computation for axisymmetric and dielectric host particles with real refractive index. The main feature of this routine is that the T -matrix of the inclusion is provided as input parameter. The inclusion can be a homogeneous, axisymmetric or

nonaxisymmetric particle, a composite or a layered scatterer and an aggregate. This choice enables the analysis of particles with complex structure and enhances the flexibility of the program. For computing the T -matrix of the inclusion, the refractive index of the ambient medium must be identical with the relative refractive index of host particle.

We consider an inhomogeneous sphere of radius ksr = 10 as shown in Fig. 3.35. The inhomogeneity is a prolate spheroid of semi-axes ksa1 = 5 and ksb1 = 5. The relative refractive indices of the sphere and the spheroid with respect to the ambient medium are mr = 1.2 and mr1 = 1.5, respectively, and the Euler angles specifying the orientation of the prolate spheroid with respect to the particle coordinate system are αp1 = βp1 = 45. The di erential scattering cross-sections are calculated for the case of normal incidence, and the maximum expansion and azimuthal orders for computing the inclusion T matrix are Nrank = 10 and Mrank = 5, respectively. In Fig. 3.36, we compare the T -matrix results to those obtained with the multiple multipole method. The agreement between the scattering curves is acceptable.

In Fig. 3.37, we show an inhomogeneous sphere with a spherical inclusion. The radii of the host sphere and the inclusion are R = 1.0 µm and r = 0.5 µm, respectively, while the relative refractive indices with respect to the ambient medium are mr = 1.33 and mr1 = 1.5, respectively. The inhomogeneity is placed at the distance z1 = 0.25 µm with respect to the particle coordinate system and the wavelength of the incident radiation is chosen as λ = 0.6328 µm.

Fig. 3.38. Normalized di erential scattering cross-sections of an inhomogeneous sphere with a spherical inclusion

The results of the di erential scattering cross-sections computed with the TINHOM2SPH routine and the code developed by Videen et al. [243] are shown in Fig. 3.38. The plots demonstrate a complete agreement between the scattering curves. We note that the FORTRAN code developed by Videen et al. [243] (see also, [180]), uses the Lorenz–Mie theory to represent the electromagnetic fields. To exploit the orthogonality of the vector spherical wave functions, the translation addition theorem is used to re-expand the field scattered by the inhomogeneity about the origin of the host sphere.

In order to provide a numerical test of the accuracy of the recursive T - matrix algorithm described in Sect. 2.6, we consider an inhomogeneous sphere with multiple spherical inclusions. The radius of the spherical inclusions is ksr = 0.3, and the maximum expansion and azimuthal orders for computing the inclusion T -matrix are Nrank = Mrank = 3. The radius of the host sphere is ksR = ksRcs(1) = 3.5 and 200 inhomogeneities are generated by using the sequential addition method [47]. The relative refractive indices with respect to the ambient medium are mr = 1.2 and mr1 = 1.5. According to the guidelines of the recursive T -matrix algorithm, two auxiliary surfaces of radii ksRcs(2) = 2.7 and ksRcs(3) = 2.2 are considered in the interior of the host particle. The values of the maximum expansion and azimuthal orders for each auxiliary surface are given in Table 3.5. The matrix inversion is performed with the bi-conjugate gradient method instead of the LU-factorization method. The results presented in Fig. 3.39 correspond to the direct method and the recursive algorithm with one and two auxiliary surfaces. The agreement between the scattering curves is satisfactory, and note that the recursive algorithm with two auxiliary surfaces is faster by a factor of 2 than the direct method.

3.5 Layered Particles

In the following examples we consider electromagnetic scattering by axisymmetric, layered particles. An axisymmetric, layered particle is an inhomogeneous particle consisting of several consecutively enclosing and rotationally symmetric surfaces with a common axis of symmetry. The scattering computations are performed with the TLAY routine and the set of routines devoted to the analysis of inhomogeneous particles. Particle geometries currently supported by the TLAY routine include layered spheroids and cylinders. We note that localized and distributed sources can be used for T -matrix calculations, and in contrast to the TINHOM routine, the relative refractive index of the host particle can be a complex quantity (absorbing dielectric medium).

Figure 3.40 shows a layered spheroid with ksa = 10, ksb = 8, ksa1 = 8, ksb1 = 3 and ksz1 = 3. The relative refractive indices of the host spheroid and the inhomogeneity with respect to the ambient medium are mr = 1.2 and mr1 = 1.5, respectively. Numerical results are presented as plots of the di erential scattering cross-sections for the inhomogeneous spheroid in fixed or random orientation. The scattering characteristics are computed with localized and distributed sources, whereas the distributed sources are placed
