Determination of volume, shape and refractive index of individual blood platelets

Irina V. Kolesnikova, Sergei V. Potapov, Maxim A. Yurkin +3

Light scattering patterns (LSP) of blood platelets were theoretically and experimentally analyzed. We used spicular spheroids as a model for the platelets with pseudopodia. The dis…

Experimental and theoretical study of light scattering by individual mature red blood cells by use of scanning flow cytometry and discrete dipole approximation

Maxim A. Yurkin, Konstantin A. Semyanov, Peter A. Tarasov +3

Elastic light scattering by mature red blood cells (RBCs) was theoretically and experimentally analyzed with the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) and the scanning flow cytometry…

The discrete dipole approximation: an overview and recent developments

Maxim A. Yurkin, Alfons G. Hoekstra

We present a review of the discrete dipole approximation (DDA), which is a general method to simulate light scattering by arbitrarily shaped particles. We put the method in histori…

The discrete dipole approximation for simulation of light scattering by particles much larger than the wavelength

Maxim A. Yurkin, Valeri P. Maltsev, Alfons G. Hoekstra

In this manuscript we investigate the capabilities of the Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA) to simulate scattering from particles that are much larger than the wavelength of the…

Convergence of the discrete dipole approximation. II. An extrapolation technique to increase the accuracy

Maxim A. Yurkin, Valeri P. Maltsev, Alfons G. Hoekstra

We propose an extrapolation technique that allows accuracy improvement of the discrete dipole approximation computations. The performance of this technique was studied empirically…
