Abstract

The rigorous modeling of large (hundreds of wavelengths) optical resonant components patterned at a subwavelength scale remains a major issue, especially when long range interactions cannot be neglected. In this Letter, we compare the performances of the discrete dipole approximation approach to that of the Fourier modal, the finite element and the finite difference time domain methods, for simulating the spectral behavior of a cavity resonator integrated grating filter (CRIGF). When the component is invariant along one axis (two-dimensional configuration), the four techniques yield similar results, despite the modeling difficulty of such a structure. We also demonstrate, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, the rigorous modeling of a three-dimensional CRIGF.
