  • Abstract
    The paper extends the two dimensional (2D) finite difference time domain method (FDTD) to accurately analyze hybrid modes in lossy and superconducting planar structures. The new algorithm involves only real-variable calculations. By using a variable mesh with second order accuracy thin layers of superconductors can be handled as well, which was previously impossible with the FDTD.
