Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

Although morphology-dependent resonances (MDRs) have been studied for decades, it is interesting to note that TM resonances have not been as widely investigated as those of the TE mode. Nevertheless, the formers are also worthy of additional study. Even though the TE and TM mode resonances can be generated using the same technique, their properties (such as the additional sharp peak in the source function at the particle surface) are quite distinct. We present the derivation of the resonance formulations for TM mode for both increasing and decreasing piecewise-constant refractive index profiles in a two-layer model of a sphere embedded …
