Anisotropic diffusion of light in a strongly scattering material.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Light transport in a strongly scattering, strongly anisotropic material is studied experimentally using both static and time-resolved techniques. Both the static and the dynamic results are well characterized by a diffusion equation with an anisotropic diffusion tensor and a scalar absorption term. Light diffuses 4.0 times faster along the uniaxial axis of the material compared with diffusion in the orthogonal directions.

Volume Integral Equations for Scattering from Anisotropic Diffraction Gratings
We analyze electromagnetic scattering of TM polarized waves from a diffraction grating consisting of a periodic, anisotropic, and possibly negative-index dielectric material. Such scattering problems are important for the modelization of, e.g., light propagation in nano-optical components and metamaterials. The periodic scattering problem can be reformulated as a strongly singular volume integr...
متن کاملAnisotropic effects in highly scattering media.
In this paper, we study anisotropic scattering and light propagation models applicable to diffuse optical tomography. We propose a model for anisotropic scattering in the radiative transfer framework and derive the corresponding anisotropic diffusion model. To verify the anisotropic diffusion model, we consider the case of a simple anisotropic scattering model also presentable within the diffus...
متن کاملAnalysis of Plane Waves in Anisotropic Magneto-Piezothermoelastic Diffusive Body with Fractional Order Derivative
In this paper the propagation of harmonic plane waves in a homogeneous anisotropic magneto-piezothermoelastic diffusive body with fractional order derivative is studied. The governing equations for a homogeneous transversely isotropic body in the context of the theory of thermoelasticity with diffusion given by Sherief et al. [1] are considered as a special case. It is found that three types of...
متن کاملDepolarized light scattering from prolate anisotropic particles: The influence of the particle shape on the field autocorrelation function.
We provide a theoretical analysis for the intermediate scattering function typically measured in depolarized dynamic light scattering experiments. We calculate the field autocorrelation function g1(VH)(Q,t) in dependence on the wave vector Q and the time t explicitly in a vertical-horizontal scattering geometry for differently shaped solids of revolution. The shape of prolate cylinders, spheroc...
متن کاملEffective Perrin theory for the anisotropic diffusion of a strongly hindered rod
Slender rods in concentrated suspensions constitute strongly interacting systems with rich dynamics: transport slows down drastically and the anisotropy of the motion becomes arbitrarily large. We develop a mesoscopic description of the dynamics down to the length scale of the interparticle distance. Our theory is based on the exact solution of the Smoluchowski-Perrin equation; it is in quantit...
