THE METHOD OF FICTITIOUS SOURCES APPLIED TO DIFFRACTION GRATINGS

摘要

This paper deals with grating diffraction in electromagnetic theory, using the method of fictitious sources. We present a detailed description of the method, and we lay stress on its numerical implementation. Numerical examples are given for various grating profiles, and compared to those obtained with other methods. An efficient method for the computation of the Green's function for gratings and its derivatives is given. [Vol. 9, No. 3 (1994), Special Issue on Generalized Multipole Technique (GMT), pp 90-100]
