miniMie
is a small scientific Python module for calculating optical cross sections (extinction, scattering, absorption) of spherical (nano)particles in a medium using Mie theory. It is essentially the script that we used and published in:
J. R. G. Navarro and M. H. V. Werts, "Resonant light scattering spectroscopy of gold, silver and gold-silver alloy nanoparticles and optical detection in microfluidic channels", Analyst 2013, 138, 583-592. This code is used regularly in our work with plasmonic nanoparticles in solution, e.g., to calculate extinction coefficients, scattering efficiencies, etc.
This release is functionally identical to the initial release (v1.0), with some minor edits and added AUTHORS and LICENSE files.
