Phys. Rev. E 52, 5178–5194 (1995)Classical model for energy transfer in microspherical dropletsReceived 2 May 1995; published in the issue dated November 1995 A classical electrodynamic model for energy transfer between donor and acceptor molecules in which the molecules are modeled using Drude oscillators is presented for dye solutions in the form of micrometer-sized droplets. The model incorporates multiparticle scattering effects by means of a binary collision expansion. Enhanced energy transfer rates and nontrivial concentration effects appear due to the Mie resonances of the droplet. Theory is discussed in light of the experiments of L. M. Folan, S. Arnold, and S. D. Druger [Chem. Phys. Lett. 118, 322 (1985)]. © 1995 The American Physical Society URL:
