Implementation of Open Boundary Problems in Photo-Conductive Antennas by Using Convolutional Perfectly Matched Layers Moreno, Enrique Hemmat, Z. Roldán Aranda, Juan Bautista Fernández Pantoja, Mario Alberto Rubio Bretones, Amelia Consuelo González García, Salvador Faez, R. Terahertz Emitters Emitter Photo-Conductive Antenna Simulations of Open Boundary Problem Convolutional Perfectly Matched Layers Finite Differences Time Domain method A method to simulate an open boundary problem within the Finite Differences Time Domain (FDTD) approach for the emission of photo-conductive antennas is presented here. For this purpose we use convolutional perfectly matched layers (CPML). In these devices, the semiconductor region, where transient currents are present in simulation time, is considered to be an ”active” medium. This medium is extended virtually beyond its boundaries or the computational domain limits. We explain in this paper how to simulate the transient state of a semiconductor in a CPML region as well as the potential of the method developed to solve conventional practical applications. 2018-04-13T07:41:41Z 2018-04-13T07:41:41Z 2016 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Moreno, Enrique; et. al.
