Simple and efficient PML algorithm for truncating nonlinear FDTD domains based on the Z-Transform method

摘要

Based on the Z-transform method, a simple, efficient and unsplit-field implementation of the Stretched Coordinate Perfectly Matched Layer (SC-PML) is proposed for truncating the nonlinear dispersive Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) lattices. In addition, the nonlinear FDTD formulations using the Z-transform method are reformulated with the advantage of a simple derivative process. The proposed algorithm is validated through two numerical examples carried out in one dimensional and two dimensional domains which include Lorentz dispersion as well as Kerr and Raman nonlinearities.
