چکیده
This paper describes a new unconditionally stable numerical method for the full-wave physical modeling of semiconductor devices by a combination of the finite-difference Laguerre time-domain (FDLTD) and alternative direction implicit finite-difference time-domain (ADI-FDTD) approaches. The unconditionally stable method by using FDLTD scheme for the electromagnetic model and semi-implicit ADI-FDTD approach for the active model leads to a significant decrease in the full-wave simulation time. Numerical simulations of an example transistor and a power amplifier show the efficiency of presented method for the full-wave simulation of mm-wave active circuits.

A New Implicit Finite Difference Method for Solving Time Fractional Diffusion Equation
In this paper, a time fractional diffusion equation on a finite domain is con- sidered. The time fractional diffusion equation is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the first order time derivative by a fractional derivative of order 0 < a< 1 (in the Riemann-Liovill or Caputo sence). In equation that we consider the time fractional derivative is in...

We report the simulation results for impact of nonlinear Kerr effect on band structures of a two dimensional photonic crystal (2D-PhC) with no defect, a PhC based W1-waveguide (W1W), and also Coupled-Cavity Waveguides (CCWs). All PhC structres are assumed to a square lattice of constant a made of GaAs rods of radius r=0.2a, in an air background. The numerical simulation was performed using...

In this paper, a new algorithm for studying elastic wave propagation in the phononic crystals is presented. At first, the displacement-based forms of elastic wave equations are derived and then the forms are discretized using finite difference method. So the new algorithm is called the displacement-based finite difference time domain (DBFDTD). Three numerical examples are computed with this met...
