The range of applicable models range from optical micromanipulation, plamonics, nano-antennae, near-field coupling and general light interaction with scatterers ranging from a few nanometers to several microns in size.engrestrictedAccessarticle112111711172500029253390001010.1016/j.jqsrt.2011.03.012DDADDA-SIMATLAB toolboxSommerfeld integralLight scattering2-s2.0-79958713326
