Mode evolution in a droplet.
We present a modifed Fox-Li analysis for the evolution of the mode in a dielectric sphere. When Fresnel apodization is included, the final field distributions resemble those calculated by the more traditional, steady-state Mie-Debye theory. For microdroplets of the size typically studied in linear and nonlinear scattering experiments, we find that this steady-state distribution evolves in approximately 200 iterations, and this corresponds to a mode evolution time in the tens of picoseconds.
