Abstract :
We develop a modal finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method with a complex-frequency-shifted (CFS) perfectly matched layer (PML) to analyze magnetic photonic crystal (MPhC) waveguides. MPhCs are periodic structures with unit cell composed of two misaligned anisotropic dielectric layers and one ferromagnetic layer. Numerical results show that the proposed modal FDTD can reduce both memory and CPU costs by one order of magnitude or more compared to the conventional FDTD.
