The total with corresponding multipole contributions (a), forward and backward (b) scattering efficiencies of spherical dielectric nanoparticle with r = 0.24 μm and n = 2.5 by using Mie theory. The total with corresponding multipole contributions (c), forward and backward (d) scattering efficiencies of spherical dielectric nanoparticle with r = 0.24 μm and n = 2.5 by using FEM and EMMT. Q a1 (ED) and Q b1 (MD) represent the electric and magnetic dipole responses, respectively. Q a2 (EQ) and Q b2 (MQ) represent the electric and magnetic quadrupole responses, respectively. Q a3 and Q b3 represent the electric and magnetic octupole responses, respectively. The arrows show the locations of corresponding multipole contributions
