Monte Carlo simulation of Hermite Gaussian laser beam in turbid medium

Abstract

We considered the higher-order TEMn,m modes in the laser illumination of a turbid medium. Then, we applied the Monte Carlo technique to the Hermite Gaussian beam as well as on the turbid medium. Hence, we extracted the optical properties like absorption and scattering by applying the stochastic variables on both the illumination and the turbid medium. The technique is based on equating the random variable to the cumulative density function (CDF) corresponding to the probability density functions. The accept/reject technique is used to get the CDF as outlined in the presented pseudo code.
