본 논문에서는 광자 크리스탈로 구성된 1$\times$4 광 분배기를 설계하여 특성을 Finite-Difference Time-Domain 방법을 사용하여 고찰하였다. Simulation한 결과 bend에서의 4가지 광자 크리스탈 배열 구조와 입사파의 주파수에 따라 투과 특성이 변하는 것을 관찰하였다. 투과 특성이 가장 좋은 bend구조로 1$\times$4광 분배기를 설계하고 특정 주파수를 입사시킨 결과, 입사파의 파워가 4개로 균등히 나누어 짐과 전체 전송 효율이 약 93%임을 관찰하였다.

The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) model was developed to analyze electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation in an inhomogeneous ionosphere. The EM analysis of ionosphere is complicated, owing to various propagation environments that are significantly influenced by plasma frequency, cyclotron frequency, and collision frequency. Based on the simple auxiliary differential equation (ADE) technique, we present an accurate FDTD algorithm suitable for the EM analysis of complex phenomena in the ionosphere under arbitrary-direction geomagnetic field. Numerical examples are used to validate our FDTD model in terms of the reflection coefficient of a single magnetized plasma slab. Based on the FDTD formulation developed here, we investigate EM wave propagation characteristics in the ionosphere using realistic ionospheric data for South Korea.

The Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is used to directly solve Maxwell's equations, and the techniques required for optical simulation of Bragg reflections of cholesteric liquid crystal (ChLC) displays are introduced in this paper. The simulated results show that the color gamut of a ChLC display can be broadened by using of a circular polarizer on top surface of the ChLC film, and are examined by experiments.

In this paper, we present an accurate and stable method for the solution of the transient electromagnetic response from the conducting wire structures using the time domain integral equation. By using an implicit scheme with the central finite difference approximation for the time domain electric field integral equation, we obtain the transient response from a wire scatterer illuminated by a plane wave and a conducting wire antenna with an impressed voltage source. Also, we consider a wire above a 3-dimensional conducting object. Numerical results are presented, which show the validity of the presented methodology, and compared with a conventional method using backward finite difference approximation.

This paper expands a previously proposed optimized higher order (2, 4) finite-difference time-domain scheme (H(2, 4) scheme) for use with lossy material. A low dispersion error is obtained by introducing a weighting factor and two scaling factors. The weighting factor creates isotropic dispersion, and the two scaling factors dramatically reduce the numerical dispersion error at an operating frequency. In addition, the results confirm that the proposed scheme performs better than the H(2, 4) scheme for wideband analysis. Lastly, the validity of the proposed scheme is verified by calculating a scattering problem of a lossy circular dielectric cylinder.

We present simulation methods to accurately determine the transmission efficiency and far-field patterns (FFPs) of a shallow-etched waveguide grating antenna (WGA) formed on a silicon-on-insulator wafer based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) approach. The directionality and the FFP of a WGA with >1-mm in length can be obtained reliably by simulating a truncated WGA structure using a three-dimensional FDTD method and a full-scale WGA using a two-dimensional FDTD with the effective index method. The developed FDTD methods are applied to the simulation of an optical phased array (OPA) composed of a uniformly spaced WGA array, and the steering-angle dependent transmission efficiency and FFPs are obtained in OPA structures having up to 128-channel WGAs.

본 논문에서는 LMDS용 평변형 안테나로 28 GHz에서 동작하는 LTS 안테나와 Vivaldi 안테나를 시간영역 유한차분법(Finite Difference Time Domain Method)를 이용하여 최적화한 후 제작 및 측정하였다. 부엽의 크기 를 줄이기 위하여 corrugation 구조를 설계한 평변형 안테나에 적용하여 FDTD 방법으로 최적화 한 후, 제작 및 측정하였다. 측정결과, corrugation 구조를 갖는 LTS 안테나와 Vivaldi 안테나의 부엽의 크기가 약 4 dB 감소됨을 확인하였다.

비둥분 Wilkinson 전력 분배기의 해석을 위해서 유한 차분 시간 영역 해석법올 적용하였다. 비등분 Wilkinson전력 분배기는 복잡한 구조로 이루어져 있어 기존의 Yee셀 모델링 방법을 사용하는 것은 적당하지 않다. 본 논문에서는, 비균등 직교 그리딩과 서브셀 모텔링 방법을 사용하여 비둥분 Wilkinson 전력 분배 기의 특성을 넓은 주파수 범위에서 정확하게 구하였다. 수치 해석 결과를 비교하기 위해서 회로 시뮬레이터 의 결과와 함께 제시 하였다.

We propose a novel micro surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor system based on polymer materials. The proposed SPR system consists of the incident medium with polymer waveguide and the gold thin film for sensing area. Using a polymer optical waveguide instead of a prism in SPR sensing system offers miniaturization, low cost, and potable sensing capability. The whole device performance was analyzed using the finite-difference time domain method. The optimum gold thickness in the attenuated total reflection mirror of polymer waveguide is around 50 nm and the resonance angle to generate surface plasmon wave is 68 degrees.

In this paper, a number of double-layered microwave integrated circuits (MIC) have been designed and analyzed based on a developed finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) solver. The solver was first validated through comparisons of the computed results with those previously published throughout the literature. Subsequently, various double-layered MIC printed on both isotropic and anisotropic substrates and superstrates, which are frequently encountered in printed circuit boards (PCB), have been designed and analyzed. It was found that in addition to protecting circuits, the added superstrate layer can increase freedoms of design and improve circuit performance, and that the FDTD is indeed a robust and versatile tool for multilayer circuit design.
