The choice of parameters of anisotropic PML has been investigated. Using the boundary truncating technique, the solution process of Finite-Element Method (FEM) has been greatly simplified compared with other hybrid methods. The required computational resources have also significantly declined since the anisotropic PML interface can be placed much closer to the scatterer compared to other well known artificial boundary.展开更多

The modes are the roots of a characteristicfunction which can be found with several methods that have been introduced in thepast. However, the evaluation of the characteristic function suffers from numericalinstabilities, and hence it is often difficult to find all modes in a given range. Here anew variational formulation is introduced, which, after discretization, leads either to aquadratic or a quartic eigenvalue problem. The modes can be computed with standardsoftware for polynomial eigenproblems. Numerical examples show that the method isnumerically stable and guarantees a complete set of solutions.展开更多

The asymmetric nature of the waveguide configuration is exploited by keeping the mode in the slab waveguide while enhancing the field level in the overlay-superstrate. The sensor's response is examined using the FDTD simulation technique. A sensitivity of up to one part in 105 in the index of refraction discrimination is determined. The nature of the sensor ensures optical fibre compatibility, requires sub-μL sample volumes and provides a high resolution.展开更多
