β¦ Synopsis
This paper deals with absorbing boundary conditions for the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method applied to homogeneous lossless waveguide structures. A theoretical formulation of the so-called 'modal absorption' (MA) is developed. On the basis of this theory different implementations available in the literature have been derived and compared. Then, some techniques to enhance the efficiency of the method have been proposed and tested. It is demonstrated that, with the proposed methods, the high level of accuracy of the original formulations is retained, while the computational cost is strongly reduced.

The nonreciprocal phenomena of a gyrotropic thin-film waveguide with a grating configuration have been analyzed by the singular perturbation technique with multiple space scales. The analyzed structure can perform both as a grating coupler and an isolator. With low gyrotropy, the beam deflection is
