Abstract

In this work we improve and extend a technique named recursive doubling procedure developed by Yuan and Lu [J. Lightwave Technology 25 (2007), 3649-3656] for solving periodic array problems. It turns out that when the periodic array contains an infinite number of periodic cells, our method gives a fast evaluation of the exact boundary Robin-to-Robin mapping if the wave number is complex, or real but in the stop bands. This technique is also used to solve the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in both one and two dimensions, when the periodic potential functions have some local defects.
