Abstract :
Plane-wave expansion methods for classical diffraction theory equations, coupled with the direct numerical solution of Maxwell´s equations using local grid refinement and the finite-difference time-domain method, help us reliably simulate an optical system´s macroscopic and subwavelength components.
