PySHS: Python Open Source Software for Second Harmonic Scattering

The
PySHS package is a new python open source software tool which
simulates the second harmonic scattering (SHS) of different kinds
of colloidal nano-objects in various experimental configurations.
This package is able to compute polarizations resolved at a fixed
scattered angle or angular distribution for different polarization
configurations. This article presents the model implemented in the
PySHS software and gives some computational examples. A comparison
between computational results and experimental data concerning molecular
dye intercalated inside liposomes membrane is presented to illustrate
the possibilities with PySHS.
