Abstract The lack of quantitative characterization aerosol particles and their loading in the atmosphere is one greatest uncertainties climate-change science. Improved instrumentation capable determining size shape needed efforts to reduce this uncertainty. We describe a new instrument carried by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that images free-floating atmosphere. Using digital holography, obtains non-contact manner, resolving larger than ten micrometers sensing volume approximately three...

We study the extinction caused by a single particle and present conceptual phase-based explanation for related optical theorem. Simulations of energy flow particle's presence in collimated beam light demonstrate how process occurs. It is shown that does not necessarily cause reduction along exact forward direction. Implications regarding measurement single-particle cross section are discussed. This work extended to noninteracting interacting multiparticle groups Part II [J. Opt. Soc. Am....

This work combines digital holography with spatial filtering at two wavelengths to record the hologram and light-scattering pattern for a single particle using color sensor. Particles 30-100 μm in size various shapes are considered. The results demonstrate ability unambiguously associate complicated scattering size, shape, orientation.

Small particles that are trapped, deposited, or otherwise fixed can be imaged by digital holography with a resolution approaching of optical microscopy. When such in motion as an aerosol, comparable is challenging to achieve. Using simplified bi-telecentric lens system, we demonstrate 1µm free-flowing aerosol at the single-particle level using in-line holography. The imaging demonstrated polystyrene latex microspheres and ragweed pollen aerosol.

An alternative to using the traditional scattering angle θ describe light from a uniform dielectric sphere is dimensionless parameter qR, where R radius of sphere, q = 2k sin(θ/2), and k wavenumber incident light. Simple patterns appear in scattered intensity if qR used place θ. These are characterized by envelopes approximating distributions quantified phase-shift ρ 2kR | m − 1 |, real refractive index sphere. Here we find new these when normalized Rayleigh differential cross section. Mie...
