Abstract :
Summary form only given. We used the finite-difference time-domain method to solve Maxwell equations. More specifically, we applied the non-dissipative Yee´s algorithm with a duality relation between the spatial representations of the electric and magnetic fields that represents both the differential and integral forms of Maxwell equations. To shorten the computational run time a parallel code was developed and run on a Pentium III linux cluster.
