Abstract :
We introduce a highly efficient magneto-static field solver for the design of lossless planar circuit elements with arbitrary shape and size far below the wavelength. The field solver is based on a finite difference formulation of a scalar magnetic potential, using potential partitioning surfaces (PPS). We present numerical results at the examples of various planar circuit elements.
