designing a power splitter with five ports has been shown in this article. in order to prevent the direct coupling between waveguides, a t-shaped structure with an appropriate distance has been used. the coupling between the parallel photonic crystal waveguides is based on multimode interference, while selecting the output efficiency is performed by setting the refractive coefficients and radiu...

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...

we have designed a new type of optical channel drop filter (cdf) based on two dimensionaltriangular lattice photonic crystals. cdf operation is based on coupling to the photonic crystalwaveguide. the proposed structure is optimized to work as a cdf for obtaining the cdfcharacteristics and band structure of the filter the finite difference time domain (fdtd) method andplane wave expansion (pwe) ...

The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is one of the most widely used computational methods in electromagnetic. This paper describes the design of two-dimensional (2D) FDTD simulation software for transverse magnetic (TM) polarization using Berenger's split-field perfectly matched layer (PML) formulation. The software is developed using Matlab programming language. Numerical examples v...

Perfectly matched layers (PML’s) are derived for cylindrical and spherical finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) grids. The formulation relies on the complex coordinate stretching approach. Two-dimensional (2-D) cylindrical and three-dimensional (3-D) spherical staggered-grid FDTD codes are written based on the time-domain versions of the equations. Numerical simulations validate the formulation...

The lumped network alternating direction implicit finite difference time domain (LN-ADI-FDTD) technique is proposed as an extension of the conventional ADI-FDTD method in this paper, which allows the lumped networks to be inserted into some ADI-FDTD cells. Based on the piecewise linear recursive convolution (PLRC) technique, the current expression of the loaded place can be obtained. Then, subs...
