First Time

Mie scattering theory has been widely used to solve the problem of light scattering by single spherical particles in many fields. In this article, it was applied for the development of opaque fiber for the first time. Firstly, the spheroid particles were simplified as equivalent spherical particles. Then, the extinction coefficient was calculated using the Matlab program and the influences of the size parameter, refractive index and the wavelength of the incident light on the extinction coefficient were discussed in detail. Finally, the results indicated that the extinction coefficient depended greatly on the dimension and the refractive index of the particles, and also the wavelength of the incident light. For the development of the opaque fiber, it would be better to choose particles that had the higher refractive index and a certain diameter distribution to achieve the most effective light scattering.
