- W2224230854 abstract "In this dissertation, we have proposed a novel class of approximants, the so-called modified Pade approximant operators for the wide-angle beam propagation method (WA-BPM). Such new operators not only allow a more accurate approximation to the true Helmholtz equation than the conventional operators, but also give evanescent modes the desired damping. We have also demonstrated the usefulness of these new operators for the solution of time-domain beam propagation problems. We have shown this both for a wideband method, which can take reflections into account, and for a split-step method for the modeling of ultrashort unidirectional pulses. The resulting approaches achieve high-order accuracy not only in space but also in time.In addition, we have proposed an adaptation of the recently introduced complex Jacobi iterative (CJI) method for the solution of wide-angle beam propagation problems. The resulting CJI-WA-BPM is very competitive for demanding problems. For large 3D waveguide problems with refractive index profiles varying in the propagation direction, the CJI method can speed-up beam propagation up to 4 times compared to other state-of-the-art methods. For practical problems, the CJI-WA-BPM is found to be very useful to simulate a big component such as an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) in the silicon-on-insulator platform, which our group is looking at.Apart from WA beam propagation problems for uniform waveguide structures, we have developed novel Pade approximate solutions for wave propagation in graded-index metamaterials. The resulting method offers a very promising tool for such demanding problems.On the other hand, we have carried out the study of improved performance of optical devices such as label-free optical biosensors, light-emitting diodes and solar cells by means of numerical and analytical methods. We have proposed a solution for enhanced sensitivity of a silicon-on-insulator surface plasmon interference biosensor which had been previously proposed in our group. The resulting sensitivity has been enhanced up to 5 times.Furthermore, we have developed an improved model to investigate the influence of isolated metallic nanoparticles on light emission properties of light-emitting diodes. The resulting model compares very well to experimental results.Finally, we have proposed the usefulness of core-shell nanostructures as nanoantennas to enhance light absorption of thin-film amorphous silicon solar cells. An increased absorption up to 33 % has theoretically been demonstrated." @default.
