Indirect mode-matching solution to scattering from a dielectric sphere with an eccentric inclusion

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The analytical formulation of electromagnetic wave scattering from an eccentrically stratified dielectric sphere is greatly simplified through the indirect mode-matching technique. The resulting exact solution is the most compact available and hence the least prone to analytical or numerical errors. After some checks we present a comparison between our solution and two previous solutions that were obtained through direct mode matching. Our numerical investigation is focused on an acrylic sphere with an eccentric cavity. All four elements of the scattering matrix are available, and specific information about the possibility of detecting the scatterer’s internal asymmetry is given.
