A Fast Hybrid Method for Analysis and Design of Photonic Structures
(University of Waterloo, 2006)This thesis presents a very efficient hybrid method for analysis and design of optical and passive photonic devices. The main focus is on unbounded wave structures. This class of photonic systems are in general very ... -
Finite-Difference Time-Domain Simulations of Light Scattering from Retinal Photoreceptors
(University of Waterloo, 2007-09-28)Recently, a novel optical imaging technique was successfully used in measuring the functional response of living retinal tissues. The technique, functional ultra high resolution optical coherence tomography, measures ... -
An Investigation and Application of the Finite Difference Time Domain Method as a Tool for Solving Equalization Problems in Acoustics
(University of Waterloo, 2010-01-25)This thesis investigates the issues in deriving the Finite Di erence Time Domain Method, including the derivation of a unique method for exciting an FDTD system that is physically realistic in terms of acoustics. It is ...
