Abstract

We describe a fully-vectorial, three-dimensional algorithm to compute the definite-frequency eigenstates of Maxwell’s equations in arbitrary periodic dielectric structures, including systems with anisotropy (birefringence) or magnetic materials, using preconditioned block-iterative eigensolvers in a planewave basis. Favorable scaling with the system size and the number of computed bands is exhibited. We propose a new effective dielectric tensor for anisotropic structures, and demonstrate that O(Δx 2) convergence can be achieved even in systems with sharp material discontinuities. We show how it is possible to solve for interior eigenvalues, such as localized defect modes, without computing the many underlying eigenstates. Preconditioned conjugate-gradient Rayleigh-quotient minimization is compared with the Davidson method for eigensolution, and a number of iteration variants and preconditioners are characterized. Our implementation is freely available on the Web.

Eigenvalue convergence as a function of grid resolution (grid points per lattice constant a) for three different methods of determining an effective dielectric tensor at each point: no averaging, simply taking the dielectric constant at each grid point; averaging, the smoothed effective dielectric tensor of Eq.
