Field-only integral equation method for time domain scattering of electromagnetic pulses

TLDR
In this paper, a non-singular boundary integral method is used to solve directly for the field components in the frequency domain, and Fourier transform is then used to obtain the complete space-time behavior.
Abstract
The scattering of electromagnetic pulses is described using a non-singular boundary integral method to solve directly for the field components in the frequency domain, and Fourier transform is then used to obtain the complete space-time behavior. This approach is stable for wavelengths both small and large relative to characteristic length scales. Amplitudes and phases of field values can be obtained accurately on or near material boundaries. Local field enhancement effects due to multiple scattering of interest to applications in microphotonics are demonstrated.

Eliminating the fictitious frequency problem in BEM solutions of the external Helmholtz equation

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of the fictitious frequency spectrum resulting from numerical implementations of the boundary element method for the exterior Helmholtz problem is revisited, and it is shown that these fictitious frequencies do not necessarily have to correspond to the internal resonance frequency of the object.

Optical Forces and Torques on Eccentric Nanoscale Core–Shell Particles

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that eccentric spherical core-shell nanoparticles can be used to generate considerable optical torques and achieve rotation rates exceeding 800 Hz, where the eccentricity is a result of the displacement of the center of the core from the shell.

Numerical solution of initial boundary value problems involving maxwell's equations in isotropic media

Abstract: Maxwell's equations are replaced by a set of finite difference equations. It is shown that if one chooses the field points appropriately, the set of finite difference equations is applicable for a boundary condition involving perfectly conducting surfaces. An example is given of the scattering of an electromagnetic pulse by a perfectly conducting cylinder.
