研究目的
Reviewing numerical and analytical methods of electronic–electromagnetic multiphysics modeling for terahertz plasmonic applications, focusing on semiclassical regime of electronic transport to examine plasma-wave phenomenology in 2-D electron gas systems.
研究成果
The review concludes that unconditionally stable FDTD and iterative ADI-FDTD methods, coupled with hydrodynamic equations, offer advantages for modeling electronic–electromagnetic coupled multiphysics multiscale models in terahertz plasmonic applications. The compromises between different modeling approaches are summarized, highlighting the importance of selecting the appropriate method based on the specific requirements of the simulation.
研究不足
The electrodynamic solution’s speed is limited by the smallest grid sizes, which are a function of electronic transport equations. The accuracy and time efficiency trade-offs between FDTD, ADI-FDTD, and iterative ADI-FDTD-based global modeling are discussed.
