simulate laser intensity disturbution from center to edges of a cube made of small cubes in matlab

To simulate laser intensity distribution from the center to the edges of a cube made of small cubes in MATLAB, you can follow these steps:

  1. Define the properties of the cube such as size, number of small cubes along each dimension, and laser parameters.
  2. Create a grid of points representing the centers of each small cube within the larger cube.
  3. Compute the distance between the center of each small cube and the center of the larger cube.
  4. Use the distance to calculate the intensity distribution.
  5. Visualize the intensity distribution using MATLAB's plotting functions.

Here's an example implementation:

main.m
% Define parameters
cubeSize = 10; % size of the cube in units
numCubes = 20; % number of small cubes along each dimension
laserPower = 1; % laser power in some units

% Create grid of points representing centers of small cubes
[X, Y, Z] = meshgrid(1:numCubes, 1:numCubes, 1:numCubes);
X = X(:);
Y = Y(:);
Z = Z(:);

% Compute distance from center of larger cube
center = cubeSize/2 + 0.5; % center point of larger cube
dist = sqrt((X-center).^2 + (Y-center).^2 + (Z-center).^2);

% Calculate intensity distribution using inverse distance square law
intensity = laserPower ./ (dist.^2);

% Visualize intensity distribution
scatter3(X, Y, Z, 100, intensity, 'filled');
title('Intensity Distribution');
xlabel('X');
ylabel('Y');
zlabel('Z');
colorbar;

Make sure to adjust the parameters according to your requirements. The code will create a scatter plot where the color represents the intensity distribution, with brighter colors indicating higher intensities closer to the center of the cube.

Note: This simulation assumes a simplified scenario where each small cube has the same dimensions and there are no obstructions or reflections within the cube.
