Abstract

Recently, we described a simple but efficient 2-D bidirectional eigenmode expansion propagation algorithm based on Fourier series expansion for modeling optical field distribution in waveguide devices. Complex coordinate transformation was used as an efficient absorbing boundary condition. In this paper, we systematically extend this algorithm to 3-D structures.
