The simulation of light scattering by particles on a substrate with the $T$-matrix method relies on the expansion of the scattered field in spherical waves, followed by a plane wave expansion to allow the evaluation of the reflection from…
We extend the T-matrix approach to light scattering by spherical particles to some simple cases in which the scatterers are optically anisotropic. Specifically we consider cases in which the spherical particles include radially and…
The paper presents a method for calculation of non-spherical particle T-matrices based on the volume integral equation and the spherical vector wave function basis, and relies on the Generalized Source Method rationale. The developed method…
This is the second paper in a series on light scattering from optically anisotropic scatterers embedded in an isotropic medium. The apparently complex T-matrix theory involving mixing of angular momentum components turns out to be an…
We introduce a numerical method that enables efficient modelling of light scattering by large, disordered ensembles of non-spherical particles incorporated in stratified media, including when the particles are in close vicinity to each…
We analyze wave propagation in coupled planar waveguides, pointing specific attention to modal cross-talk and out-of-plane scattering in quasi-planar photonics. An algorithm capable of accurate numerical computation of wave coupling in…
Predicting the optical response of macroscopic arrangements of individual scatterers is a computational challenge, as the problem involves length scales across multiple orders of magnitude. We present a full-wave optical method to highly…
We present an extension of the T-matrix approach to scattering of light by a three-level system, using a description based on a Master equation. More particularly, we apply our formalism to calculate the T-matrix of a pumped three-level…
We discuss "the plane wave approximation" to quantum mechanical scattering using simple one-dimensional examples. The central points of the paper are that (a) plane waves should be thought of as infinitely wide wave packets, and (b) the…
We report the publication of treams, a new software for electromagnetic scattering computations based on the T-matrix method. Besides conventional T-matrix calculations for individual scatterers and finite clusters of particles, a unique…
The T-matrix method is widely used for the calculation of scattering by particles of sizes on the order of the illuminating wavelength. Although the extended boundary condition method (EBCM) is the most commonly used technique for…
The multiple scattering method T-matrix (MSTMM) can be used to solve the electromagnetic response of systems consisting of many compact scatterers, retaining a good level of accuracy while using relatively few degrees of freedom, largely…
We derive the $\mathcal{T}$-matrix formalism tailored for numerical analysis of second-harmonic (SH) generation from arbitrarily shaped particles made of centrosymmetric optical materials. First, the transfer matrix of a single particle is…
Advanced computational tools that describe the interaction of electrons with structured nanophotonic materials are crucial for theoretical predictions, specific design tasks, and the interpretation of experimental results. These tools open…
We show that a saturable single-frequency elastic T-matrix approach to scattering of light by atoms agrees remarkably well with a master equation description in the regime of unsaturated atoms, or for large separation between the atoms. If…
We introduce TERMS, an open-source Fortran program to simulate near-field and far-field optical properties of clusters of particles. The program solves rigorously the Maxwell equations via the superposition T-matrix method, where incident…
When a wave, such as sound or light, scatters within a densely packed particulate, it can be rescattered many times between the particles, which is called multiple scattering. Multiple scattering can be unavoidable when: trying to use sound…
The $T$-matrix formally describes the solution of any electromagnetic scattering problem by a given particle in a given medium at a given wavelength. As such it is commonly used in a number of contexts, for example to predict the…
The transition-matrix ($T$-matrix) approach provides a general formalism to study scattering problems in various areas of physics, including acoustics (scalar fields) and electromagnetics (vector fields), and is related to the theory of the…
We present a perturbative technique for modeling the scattering of light by a nonlinear material. This approach eliminates the need for an iterative algorithm to solve the fully coupled nonlinear problem. We demonstrate its effectiveness in…
