(2010-01-16)The first part of this study is focused on numerical studies of light scattering from a single microscopic particle using the Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA) method. The conventional DDA formalism is generalized to ...
-
(2014-07-12)In the first part of this dissertation, we study the light scattering properties of particles with chiral structures. Special attention is paid to the dinoflagellates, known for their circular polarization effects and as ...
-
(2014-07-28)We implement the Pseudo-Spectral Time Domain(PSTD) algorithm with Convolutional Perfect Matched Layer(CPML). Comparisons were conducted to test its performance with Mie's method. Results illustrate its good performance. ...
-
(2013-08-01)An accurate and generalized global retrieval algorithm from satellite observations is a prerequisite to understand the radiative effect of atmospheric aerosols on the climate system. Current operational aerosol retrieval ...
