Controlling Mie scattering response to refractive index variations via light field manipulation.

ABSTRACT: We present an efficient method for determining the T-matrix of axisymmetric particles using the finite element method (FEM) in conjunction with an analytical approach that expands the scattered field using vector spherical harmonics (VSHs). To tailor the response of nanoparticles under complex optical field excitation, we design the incident field based on the T-matrix, which comprehensively describes the relationship between the incident and scattered fields. The sensitivity of scattering field to environmental refractive index can be effectively controlled by introducing the concepts of principal modes (PMs) and anti-principal modes (anti-PMs), which used to be utilized to control frequency dispersion of multi-channel light scattering. Our approach diverges from previous research by emph
