An efficient finite difference time domain algorithm for band structure calculations of Phononic crystal
Authors
Abstract:
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 method and the results are compared with experimental measurements and the conventional FDTD method. Also, the computational cost of the new approach is compared with the conventional FDTD method. The comparison showed that the calculation time of the DBFDTD method is 37.5 percent less than that of the FDTD method.

A polymer-wall-confined transmissive switchable liquid crystal grating is proposed and investigated by two-dimensional finite-difference time-domain optical calculation and liquid-crystal-director calculation, to our knowledge for the first time. The results show how to obtain optimized conditions for high diffraction efficiency by adjusting the liquid crystal parameters, grating geometric stru...

The band gap for 2D PhC with different modes and different lattice structures using FDTD have been computed. Three PBGs between the first and the second bands, between the second and the third bands and between the fourth and fifth bands are concluded. Simulation results shows that for band structure computation is of 1D PhC using FDTD, it is found that some additional solutions appear, which a...

We map the band structure of surface acoustic modes of a periodic array of copper lines embedded in a SiO2 film on a silicon substrate by means of the laser-induced transient grating technique. A detailed map of the lowest sheet of the ω(k) surface and partial maps of two higher-order sheets are obtained. We discuss the topology of the ω(k) surface and explain how it arises from the Rayleigh an...
