Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

In this work we present a complete algorithm for the exact computation of the guided mode band structure in photonic crystal (PhC) wave-guides. In contrast to the supercell method, the used approach does not introduce any modelling error and is hence independent of the confinement of the modes. The approach is based on Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) transparent boundary conditions that yield a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. For the solution of this nonlinear eigenvalue problem we present a direct technique using Chebyshev interpolation that requires a band gap calculation of the PhC in advance. For this band gap calculation we introduce as a very efficient tool a Taylor expansion of the PhC band structure. We show that our algorithm like the supercell method converges exponentially, however, its computational costs in comparison to the supercell method only increase moderately since the size of the matrix to be inverted remains constant.
