Numerical evaluations of the BSCs by using Eqs. (9) and (10)
is excessively time-consuming. When the particle coordinate system
Oxyz is parallel to the beam coordinate system O0 x0 y 0 z 0 ( = 0), this
difficulty can be overcome with the use of the localized approximation
because of its high efficiency in computation. From a mathematical
point of view, it takes the operations of r k1 (n + 1/2) and = 2 on
the right sides of Eqs. (9) and (10) to simplify the computation of the
integrals. Unfortunately, for the general case of oblique illumination
( 6= 0), such a localization principle fails to hold [13]. To overcome
the difficulty, a method is provided by us to evaluate the BSCs for
oblique illumination, which can be divided into two steps.
First, the incident Gaussian beam is expanded in terms of the
spherical vector wave functions with respect to the system Ox00 y 00 z 00 ,
and the corresponding BSCs can be efficiently evaluated by applying
the localization principle.
Second, we use the addition theorem for the spherical vector
wave functions under coordinate rotations to derive the expansion of
Gaussian beam as in Eqs. (5) and (6), and, after some algebra, the

and gn,TE , gn,TM are the BSCs evaluated in the system Ox00 y 00 z 00 ,
and, as pointed out above, can be efficiently calculated by using the
localization approximation method.
When the Davis-Barton model of the Gaussian beam is

used [20, 22], the BSCs for a Gaussian beam with

can be computed without any loss of accuracy by the localization
approximation method [21].
For the representation of the incident Gaussian beam in spheroidal
coordinates, the following equation is useful, which indicates the
conversion relationship between the spherical and spheroidal vector
wave functions [23]

The prime over the summation sign in Eq. (18) indicates that the
summation is over even values of r when n m is even and over odd
values of r when n m is odd. In Eq. (19), m0 = 0 and s0 = 0 when
m 6= 0 and s 6= 0 respectively, and 00 = 1.

3. SCATTERING OF GAUSSIAN BEAM BY A
SPHEROIDAL PARTICLE
In the framework of the GLMT for a spheroid, once the Gaussian
beam expansion is obtained, the scattered fields as well as the fields
within the spheroidal particle can be expanded in terms of appropriate
spheroidal vector wave functions as follows [17]:

Obviously, it is not sufficient to solve Eqs. (31) and (32) for the

By substituting Eq. (34) into Eqs. (27) and (28), which express
the electric fields within the dielectric coating in the same spherical coordinate system, we can find that, for every q, the following formulae

The prime over the summation sign indicates that q takes even
values when n m is even and odd values when n m is odd [16].
For every value of m, we can truncate the infinite system of
equations consisting of Eqs. (31), (32) and (35) by setting n = m, m +
1, . . . , m+N , t = 0, 1, . . . , N and q = 0, 1, . . . , N , N being a suitable
large number for a convergent solution, so that the total number of
unknown coefficients is 12(N +1). From the above truncated system,
an adequate number of relations between the unknown coefficients can
be generated, and the standard numerical techniques may be employed
to solve for them.

dielectric spheroidal particle. In the = 0 plane, parallel to the
incident plane, the spheroid has the maximum forwardscattering, i.e.,
in the angle regions around = 3 due to the transmitted light by the
particle which dominates the scattering profile, and oscillations due to
interference of light diffracted with light transmitted by the particle.
With the increase of the angle by which the scattering plane incline
from the incident plane, for example from = 4 to = 2 , the curve
oscillates with a smaller amplitude.
The radiation force and torque generated by a Gaussian beam
on a particle can be used for optical trapping or manipulation, in
which one fundamental problem concerns the description of Gaussian
beam scattering by the particle, especially in an analytical form. In
theoretical predictions of light scattering, it is probably appropriate to
model a biological cell in water solution as a spheroidal particle having
a spherical inclusion (a1 /b1 taken to be 1.0001 in computation for the
scattering geometry in Section 4), illuminated by one Ar laser beam.
The incident Ar laser beam has a wavelength of = 0.3868 m in
water and is approximated by a Gaussian beam with w0 = 2. Fig. 3
shows the normalized differential scattering cross sections (, 0)/2
for such a theoretical model. In Fig. 3, n

are the refractive indices of the material of the inner sphere and outer
spheroid, but relative to that of water, and the wavelength of the

Fig. 1, the curve shows fewer oscillations. According to the concept
of geometrical shadow adopted by Asano and Yamamoto [24, 25],
the geometrical shadow of the spheroidal particle is b2 (a22 sin2 +
b22 cos2 )1/2 and that of the spherical inclusion is a21 . It is obvious
that, with the increase of the absolute value of , the ratio of the
geometrical shadow of the spherical inclusion to that of the spheroidal
particle becomes smaller, and then the interference effects decrease of
light diffracted and transmitted by the spherical inclusion with light
by the spheroidal particle, thus leading to a smoother curve with fewer
553
oscillations.
Figure 4 shows the normalized differential scattering cross sections
(, )/2 in two scattering planes = 0 (plane 1) and = 2
(plane 2), parallel to and normal to the incident plane respectively, for
a spheroid with a concentric non-confocal dielectric coating illuminated
by a Gaussian beam of w0 = 2. Compared to plane 1, plane 2 shows
smoother oscillations.
6. CONCLUSION
As an extension of the GLMT for spheres, the theory of Gaussian
beam scattering from a spheroidal particle is given, including the
expansion of Gaussian beam in terms of spheroidal vector wave
functions, scattering of Gaussian beam by an arbitrarily oriented
spheroidal particle, and by a spheroidal particle with non-confocal
dielectric coating. Numerical results for the normalized differential
scattering cross section are presented. The plotted curve has the
maximum forwardscattering, and oscillates with a smaller amplitude
as the angle between the scattering plane and incident plane increases.
For a coated spheroid, with the increase of the absolute value of , the
curve becomes smoother with fewer oscillations. Due to the difficulties
(3)
in computation of the radial functions of the third kind Rmn (c, ),
applications of the method to larger or smaller ka and larger a/b is
at present limited. As a result, this study provides an important
analytical model of the scatterer, and is suggestive and useful for
interpretation of shaped beam scattering phenomena for homogenous
and inhomogeneous spheroidal particles.
