Mie Scattering Algorithm Implementation
Mie scattering is the most fundamental and widely-used algorithm for particle scattering calculations, offering unparalleled accuracy when dealing with particle scattering at wavelength scales. Interestingly, Mie scattering isn't an independent theory but rather an analytical solution of Maxwell's equations for spherical media. Due to the complexity of the solution process, Gustav Mie's pioneering complete solution became classical and was named Mie Theory. Key technical implementation involves coding the complex mathematical formulations using MATLAB, which significantly reduces computational time and improves accuracy through numerical optimization techniques.
