Abstract
A hybrid finite element finite-difference time-domain (FE/FDTD) technique for solving complex electromagnetic problems is presented. The method combines the computational simplicity of the structured FDTD scheme with the versatility as well as flexibility of the finite-element method (FEM) and enables us to accurately model curved geometries and those with fine features. Numerical results that illustrate the accuracy of the method are included
