Abstract
In this paper, the nondiffracting Bessel beam sources are implemented in finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The high-order scattered-field algorithm of the FDTD (SF-FDTD (2, 4)) method is employed to investigate the scattering of particles illuminated by Bessel beams. In the SF-FDTD (2, 4) method, the scattered fields of the whole region are calculated directly by time stepping and the incident fields are obtained by the vector expressions of the diffraction-free Bessel beam. Some numerical results are included to illustrate the validity and capability of the proposed method. This study is expected to provide a new efficient method to investigate the interactions between nondiffracting beams and complex particles.
