Numerical Methods in Photonics

By Frank Schmidt, Andrei V. Lavrinenko, Jesper Laegsgaard, et al.

Book Overview

Choosing the appropriate computational method for a photonics problem requires a clear understanding of the pros and cons of the available numerical methods. This book presents six of the most frequently used methods: FDTD, FDFD, 1+1D nonlinear propagation, modal method, Green's function, and FEM. Each method is accompanied by a review of the mathematical principles in which it is based, along with sample scripts, illustrative examples of characteristic problem solving, and exercises. MATLAB(R) is used throughout the text.
