Abstract
An efficient finite‐difference time‐domain method is proposed for the full‐wave analysis of guided modes in photonic crystal fibers. The three‐dimensional hybrid guided modes can be calculated by a two‐dimensional mesh, if one assumes that the propagation constant along the z‐direction (propagation direction) is fixed. Furthermore, only real variables are used in the present method. Therefore, the computation time and computer memory are significantly reduced. The results for a honeycomb‐based silica–air photonic crystal fiber are in very good agreement with the results from the plane‐wave expansion method. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract In this paper we use the body of revolution (BOR) version of the finite difference time domain method to analyze axially‐symmetric dielectric waveguides including optical fibers. Because the BOR technique is two‐dimensional in nature, it is an efficient tool for analyzing the modes in o
In this article, a general full-wave two dimensional finite difference frequency domain (2D-FDFD) method is presented that could be used to analyze general circular multi-layered multi-conductor guiding structures. The FDFD method is mainly used to get the dispersion curves for these structures. The
