Laser-induced stimulated Raman scattering in the forward direction of a droplet: comparison of Mie theory with geometrical optics.
Comparison of Mie theory calculations of the internal electromagnetic source function for a 120-microm-diameter water droplet with geometrical optics suggests that the field enhancement located at the critical ring region encircling the axis in the forward direction of the droplet can support stimulated Raman scattering as found experimentally.
