Abstract

This paper describes the application of the buffered block forward backward (BBFB) method to the problem of modeling 2D terahertz (THz) photonic band gap waveguides at the frequency of 3 THz. The method of moments (MoM) is applied to the integral equation (IE) formulation in order to obtain the linear system that is solved using the BBFB technique. The waveguide dimensions are obtained using the gap map technique.
