Effective Permittivity Scheme for ADI-FDTD Method at the Interface of Dispersive Media

Abstract

This paper presents an effective permittivity
scheme to treat the dispersive media interfaces in ADI-
FDTD method so as to avoid significant error due to
improper assignment of media permittivity. In order to
reduce the extra memory storage and computation
operation required, a reduced-order modeling method is
introduced to our scheme, which can simplify the
programming work as well and therefore has a significant
practical meaning. One numerical experiment will be
performed to illustrate the procedure and effect of this
effective permittivity scheme. The stability analysis of
the updating equations will also be discussed.
