The present paper pursues a fairly usual tradition basically devoted to reviews describing
advances in some light scattering theories in which the illuminating beam is described using …

Conventional PV/T systems generally focus on maximizing electricity generation by PV
modules only, and they do not balance the generation of electricity and heat for buildings. To …

Traditional PV/T systems, with passive cooling channels, can not solve the problem of
coupling power/heat source on the surface of PV modules, resulting in lower electrical …

Apart from a lot of fundamental interest, vector Bessel beams are widely used in optical
manipulation, material processing, and imaging. However, the existing description of such …

Based on the generalized Lorenz–Mie theory (GLMT) and the angular spectrum
decomposition method (ASDM), we calculate the optical radiation force exerted on a …

Unlike standard dielectric materials, the interaction of light-sheets of arbitrary wavefronts
with a particle exhibiting circular dichroism, such as chiral, topological insulator, liquid …

Based on the generalized Lorenz-Mie theory (GLMT) and the angular spectrum
decomposition method (ASDM), we calculate the time-averaged optical (spin) torque (OST) …

The optical radiation force acting on a homogeneous and lossless dielectric spherical
particle by a polarized Airy beam is analyzed in terms of the generalized Lorenz–Mie theory …

The inclusions in a high-temperature resistant matrix can significantly influence the radiative
heat transfer of composite materials at elevated temperatures; therefore, the microstructure …

In this work, we report an implementation of typical structured light beams, including the
Hermite–Gaussian beams, Laguerre–Gaussian beams, Bessel beams, and Airy beams, in …
