Infinite Cylinder Optical (ICO) Tool
Developed by Dr. Daniel Brandl under the supervision of Prof. Amy Oldenburg, ICO Tool allows the user to specify wavelength-dependent material refractive indexes for both the cylinder and surrounding medium, and to compute the optical scattering, absorption, and extinction as a function of wavelength or cylinder diameter. One can also specify the incident angle with respect to the axis of the cylinder.

For more information, please read the ICO tool readme.

To download the program, save ICOTool.zip (1.3 MB) to your computer, extract the files into a common folder, and double-click the ICOTool.exe program to run. The program will NOT run directly from the zip folder!
