Lightscatteringisanopticalnaturalphenomenonthatexistsextensively.Literally, lightscatteringreferstoaphenomenonthatscatterslightinalldirections.Whenthe light passes through an inhomogeneous medium, photons of different wavelengths interactandcollidewiththeinhomogeneousareaofthemedium,scatteringthelightin differentdirections.Therefore,thelightcanbeobservedinotherdirectionsbesidesthe direction of the incident light. For example, in a dark night, when you turn on the electrictorch,you can observe the light cross, and thisisbecause the electrictorch lightisscatteredbythesuspendedparticlesintheair;hence,thelightisvisibletoour eyes.Thelargertheparticles,theclearerwouldbeseenforthesefloatingparticles.Itis becauseoftheexistenceoftheseparticlesresultedinscatteringoftheelectrictorch lightthattheflashlightcouldnotspreadtoinfinity. 1.1.1.1 Lightscatteringactingasanimportantformoflightdecay The same as the light absorption, light scattering also can make the light passing through a medium decay. For example, when a white light passes through water- dilutedmilk,inthedirectionwherethelightadvances,themilkappearspink,while fromthesideandabove,itappearslightblue.Thisisbecausethewhitelightcollides withsmallparticlesinmilkemulsion,causingvariationofdifferentdegreesforthe lightofdifferentwavelengthsfromtheoriginalincidencedirectionofthewhitelight. Ashort-wavelengthlighthasmorevariation,whilealong-wavelengthlighthasless variation. Inopticalpropagation,theflowofphotonsinteractswiththeinhomogeneousarea of a medium, such as an atom, a molecule, molecular aggregates, or particles of differentsizes,andsolightintensitychangesintermsofspatialdistribution,polariza- tionstate,orfrequency.Inotherwords,whenthelightpropagatesthroughamedium, ifthereisanyinhomogeneity,itcanleadtolightscattering.Thus,lightscatteringisa formofinteractionbetweentheflowofphotonsandtheinhomogeneousarea,which widelyexistinnatureandourdailylife. https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110573138-001 2 ChengZhiHuang,JianLing,YuanFangLi 1.1.1.2 Propagationofsunlight Propagationoflightcanbeseeninatmosphere,suchasbluesky,whitecloud,rosy cloud, and fog. Either blue sky, beautiful morning light, pretty sunset glow, or a rainbowaftertherain,allthesephenomenaarethecombinedresultoflightscatter- ing,lightreflex,andlightrefraction,producedbytheinteractionsbetweensunlight and atmospheric suspended solids, and gas molecules. Because of this, on cloudy rainy days or in case of fierce dust storm, sunlight hardly reaches the ground. In addition,becauseofthis,evensuperstronglaserbeamcannotpropagatetoinfinity. Whensunlightpassesthroughtheatmosphere,raysofdifferentwavelengthsof the sunlight react with the atmosphere, that is, with floating particles and gas molecules in it. For the fact that the light at different wavelengths has different degreeofscattering,theshorterthewavelength,thelargerthedegreeofscattering is.Ashort-wavelengthlighthasalargerdegreeofscattering;itscattersalloverthe sky,resultinginprettybluecolorofthesky.Asalong-wavelengthlighthasasmaller degreeofscattering,itdirectlypropagatestotheground,andthecolorofthelightis crociororangered.Forthisreason,onasunnynoon,thesunshinesdirectlyatthe groundwith strongshort-wavelength lightscattering,andwe can see thebluesky andnearlywhitesun.Thesunappearswhitebecausethesunlightistoostrong,so that the scattered intensity distributed all over the wave band (white light) is not enough to change the color of the sun. While in both the morning and at night, sunlightreachestheearththroughatmospherewithalargedipangle,therearemuch moreinteractionsbetweenthesunlightandfloatingparticlesandairmoleculesinthe atmosphere,andsotheshorter-wavelengthincludingbluelightandyellowlightare sidescattered,andonlythelonger-wavelengthincludingredlightreachestheearth, makingtheskyblueandthesunyellowtored. When compared withthe wavelengthof a visiblelight, dust,droplet, and other suspendedparticleshavelargersizes.Forexample,PM referstoaparticlewithasize 2.5 smallerorequalto2.5μm;PM referstoaparticlewithasizesmallerorequalto10μm. 10 DiametersofPM andPM arefarlargerthanthewavelengthofthesunlightofvisible 2.5 10 region (360–760 nm). So, when the sunlight passes through the atmosphere and collides with these larger particles, the sunlight is reflected in different directions.
