Abstract
In this paper, shift operator finite-difference time-domain (SO-FDTD) method is applied for the calculation of the dispersive medium. The high efficiency and accuracy of this method is verified by calculating the reflection of the plane electromagnetic wave impinging on a non-magnetized plasma slab with different electron density distributions. The results show that the average electron density only determines overall trends of the reflection, and different distributions affect the oscillating process of the reflection. If the average electron density maintains the same, the distribution of electron density with homogenous or inhomogeneous alternation will sharply take effects on the reflection. And magnitude of alternation of electron density affects the incident frequency directly when the reflection tends to uniform.
