Abstract

To investigate the infrared photonic crystal devices numerically, the traditional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method has been modified by combining with a new alternating direction implicit (ADI) algorithm. An improvement of two-five in speed over previous FDTD methods can be obtained by calculating the envelope rather than the fast-varying field, and the numerical errors are minimized. Consider the isolated localized coupled-cavity modes, the phenomenon of eigenmode splitting has been observed when the coupled-cavity structures in two dimension triangular dielectric photonic crystals are simulated. The results are in good agreement with experiments.
