Paper Abstract
Finite difference time domain is a powerful numerical method. We review our modeling and design of optical gratings and 2D photonic crystals, aided by the recently developed quartic perfectly matched layer boundary condition. For optical gratings with a quarter wave phase shift, we show that light can be confined in an air bridge micro-cavity. Such devices exhibit sharp transmission resonances in the stop bands. Photonic crystals also demonstrate strong localization of light so waveguides of air can be formed. In addition, even when the bending radius is zero, the transmission exceeds 0.95 percent.
