Abstract
An efficient numerical algorithm for computing the light scattering by a coated sphere is proposed. The calculation of relevant functions by different recurrence algorithms is discussed. The new algorithm avoids the numerical difficulties, which give rise to significant errors encountered in practice by prior methods. Exemplifying results such as extinction efficiency, scattering efficiency, light scattering intensity as well as calculation speed are provided. The results show that this algorithm is efficient, fast, numerically stable and accurate.
