(color online) Scattered electric field intensity distributions of an active spherical nanoparticle with R = 65.1 nm at (a) and nm and (c) and nm. The scattered magnetic field intensity distribution around an active spherical nanoparticle with R = 65.1 nm at (e) and nm. Panels (b), (d) and (f) show the corresponding projections of the Poynting vector on XZplane of panels (a), (c), and (e), respectively. The “Red Star” represents the source of the Poynting vector.
