Interference Between Diffraction and Transmission in the Mie Extinction Efficiency

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    We give simple analytic and numerical demonstrations showing that the interference structure in the Mie extinction efficiency of a sphere is caused by the interference of the light waves that are diffracted and transmitted in the near-forward direction.
