There are many methods for rigorously calculating electromagnetic diffraction by objects of
arbitrary shape and permittivity. In this article, we will detail the discrete dipole …

The photonic nanojet (PNJ) is a narrow high-energy beam that was originally found on the
back side of all-dielectric spherical structures. It is a unique type of energy concentration …

A fluctuational electrodynamics-based formalism for calculating near-field radiative heat
transfer between objects of arbitrary size and shape and an infinite surface is presented. The …

We provide rigorous definitions of various components of the energy budget for scattering of
source-induced electromagnetic fields by a finite nonmagnetic object. We use the classical …

Deposition of particles on photovoltaic (PV) modules has the potential to increase costs of
solar energy production and maintenance and to affect grid-connected energy forecasting …

Metasurface design tends to be tedious and time-consuming based on sweeping geometric
parameters. Common numerical simulation techniques are slow for large areas, ultra-fine …

The T-matrix method pioneered by Peter C. Waterman is one of the most versatile and
efficient numerically exact computer solvers of the time-harmonic macroscopic Maxwell …

We apply machine-learning algorithms to the calculated light-scattering patterns from
particles having seven different common and naturally occurring shapes to assess the …

In this tutorial, we introduce a solver of monochromatic Maxwell equations made freely
available athttps://www. fresnel. fr/perso/chaumet/ifdda. html, based on the volume moment …

The polarization state of light scattered by a two-dimensional array of spherical particles is
considered based on the statistical approach. The impact of filling factor, particle size, and …
