Study of Microsphere and Microspheroid Light Scattering characteristics

In this paper,the light scattering characteristics of microsphere are studied by adopting Mie scattering theory and the Eikonal approximation method is used to approximate the spheroid with its effective spheres so that we could use Mie scattering theory to calculate and analysis it.The numerical results are analyzed and the results show that the characteristics of light scattered by a sphere are similar to those of the spheroid.Moreover the distribution of the amplitude of the scattering light is related to its position.The results of this paper may provide references for how to design and apply appropriate microsphere and microspheroid optical elements in practical experiment and for further studying of microlens arrays.
