Abstract

In this paper a new semivectorial finite‐difference beam‐propagation method (FD‐BPM) technique for the analysis of nonlinear optical devices is presented. The proposed technique relies on the application of the Runge–Kutta method to perform each propagation step; it is easier to use than the Crank–Nicholson‐based FDBPM method and exhibits better numerical performance. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A wide‐band finite‐difference–time‐domain beam propagation method (FD TD‐BPM) based on Padé approximants is introduced to improve the bandwidth of the conventional TD‐BPM. Numerical dispersion relations for the TD‐BPM are derived to demonstrate the increase in bandwidth of the wide‐band

We in¨estigate the numerical instability of a finitedifference beam-propagation formulation applied to tapered optical wa¨eguides, and we find that instability may occur with the use of con¨entional transparent boundary conditions. We suggest modified transparent boundary conditions to remo¨e the in
