Abstract

PhotonicsRT: Wave Propagation in Multilayer Sturacture calculates electromagnetic field for a wave incident at arbitrary incident angle on a multilayer material stack using the T-matrix approach. User defines the following parameters:
  • Polarization of incident waves
  • Incident angle of the waves
  • Wavelength range
  • Material in the front side
  • Multilayer structure (material and thickness for each layer)
  • Material in the back side
The material parameters used in this tool are permittivity and permeability. For permittivity, same sources and interpolation method are used as PhotonicsDB: Optical Constants For permeavility, all the values are fixed to unity.
