Abstract

In this paper, we propose an optimal design approach based on a concept of mosaic-like structure for achieving high performance NRD devices. In order to improve design efficiency, we employ the recently proposed two-dimensional full vectorial finite element method (2D-FVFEM) which can accurately model 3D structure of NRD as a numerical simulation method. As an optimization method, we employ either direct binary search (DBS) algorithm or genetic algorithm (GA) depending on design problems. In order to show the usefulness of our approach, design examples of crossing and T-branch waveguides are considered and high transmission efficiency greater than 99.9% for crossing waveguide and 49.8%: 49.8% for T-branch waveguide is achieved. The numerical results by 2D-FVFEM are verified by 3D-FVFEM.
