| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to develop high-performance photonic devices, the function-expansion based topology optimization method for three-dimensional photonic devices has been investigated. In order to improve design efficiency, the usefulness of the approximated two-dimensional design is improved by proposing the improved effective index method. By using these structures as initial structures of three-dimensional optimization, the design efficiency is able to be improved. Furthermore, to improve the computational efficiency of slowly varying waveguides, slowly varying envelope approximated finite element method is newly proposed and its usefulness is demonstrated. Topology optimization using semi-vectorial finite difference beam propagation method based on alternative direction implicit method is also proposed and its usefulness is demonstrated through some design examples have been shown. The stability of the full-vectorial finite element beam propagation method is also discussed.
