Abstract: | The finite element and the beam propagation method, two widely used methods in photonics, are utilized for the analysis of plasmonic components based on the dielectric-loaded plasmonic waveguide. Two components are chosen as examples and are subsequently numerically investigated by employing the aforementioned methods, in order to demonstrate their applicability in plasmonics. Specifically, a microring resonator add-drop filter and a Mach–Zehnder interferometric switch are analyzed by means of the finite element and the beam propagation method, respectively. The formulation adopted is clearly presented in both cases and the case-dependent implementation details are thoroughly discussed. |
