Abstract :
A simple two-dimensional method-of-lines (MOL) formulation is proposed for two-layer boxed structures. The formulation uses the Ez- and Hz-field components in the Helmholtz equation and a reduced Y-matrix equation. A closed-form equation is given for the Y-matrix. No additional derivations are needed to implement the method
