Abstract :
In recent years, the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method has been prevailed in the simulation of metamaterials widely. As the FDTD method can be suitable for the parallel computing, we apply this method to the Fermi-architecture Graphic Process Units (GPUs) to calculate the electromagnetic simulation of double negative materials in this paper. Finally, both theory analysis and results of simulated experiments show that this algorithm has improved the calculation efficiency and saved the memory of computers.
