Modal Method Based on Subsectional Gegen- Bauer Polynomial Expansion for Lamellar Gratings: Weighting Function, Convergence and Stability
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Modal Method by Gegenbauer polynomials Expansion (MMGE) has been recently introduced for lamellar gratings by Edee [8]. This method shows a promising potential of outstanding convergence but still suffers from instabilities when the number of polynomials is increased. In this work, we identify the origin of these instabilities and propose a way to remove them.

Pseudospectral Modal Method for Conical Diffraction of Gratings
For lamellar gratings and other layered periodic structures, the modal methods (including both analytic and numerical ones) are often the most efficient, since they avoid the discretization of one spatial variable. The pseudospectral modal method (PSMM) previously developed for in-plane diffraction problems of one-dimensional gratings achieves high accuracy for a small number of discretization ...
متن کاملGeneration of adaptive coordinates and their use in the Fourier Modal Method.
We present an improvement of the standard Fourier Modal Method (FMM) for the analysis of lamellar gratings that is based on the use of automatically generated adaptive coordinates for arbitrarily shaped material profiles in the lateral plane of periodicity. This allows for an accurate resolution of small geometric features and/or large material contrasts within the unit. For dielectric gratings...
متن کاملA Stable Approach to Conical Diffraction of Nearly Lossless Metallic Gratings
We adopt a multidomain pseudospectral method to analyze lamellar gratings for general conical diffraction from TE and TM diffractions. The validity and usefulness of this approach are demonstrated through normal metallic lossy and highly conductive lossless gratings. The developed method provides excellent numerical stability and convergence over commonly used rigorous couple wave analysis (RCW...
متن کاملFourier-matching pseudospectral modal method for diffraction gratings.
A Fourier-matching pseudospectral modal method [PSMM(f)] is developed for analyzing lamellar diffraction gratings or grating stacks. A Chebyshev pseudospectral method is first used to accurately calculate the eigenmodes of the grating layers, and then the Fourier coefficients are matched at the interfaces between the layers. Compared with an existing pseudospectral modal method based on point m...
متن کاملA conceptual model of the diffuse transmittance of lamellar diffraction gratings on solar cells
Diffraction gratings are effective ways of increasing the light absorption of solar cells and the light extraction of light-emitting diodes. In this paper, we show that simplified modal analysis can be used as a conceptual model for understanding the behavior of the diffuse transmittance of lamellar diffraction gratings on infinite substrates. We use simplified modal analysis to predict the opt...
