Efficient periodic band diagram computation using a finite element method, Arnoldi eigensolver and sparse linear system solver
Abstract
We present here a Finite Element Method devoted to the simulation of 3D periodic structures of arbitrary geometry. The numerical method based on ARPACK and PARDISO libraries, is discussed with the aim of extracting the eigenmodes of periodical structures and thus establishing their frequency band gaps. Simulation parameters and the computational optimization are the focus. Resolution will be used to characterize EBG (Electromagnetic Band Gap) structures, such as plasma rods and metallic cubes.
