Implementation of dispersion models in the split-field-finite-difference-time-domain algorithm for the study of metallic periodic structures at oblique incidence.
We extend here the finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) algorithm working in oblique incidence to dispersive media. The split-field method (SFM) is used and adapted for taking into account the metal dispersion. The additional equations to the FDTD algorithm are given. Instead of the 24 field components usually used in the SFM, 38 and 112 field components are needed to implement the cases of Drude and Drude-Lorentz dispersion models, respectively. Some tests are presented to validate our code as long as the angle of incidence is lower than 76 degrees in addition to an application dealing with enhanced transmission and showing original results.
