Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The reflection at the interface between air and gold whose dielectric properties are expressed by the Drude-Lorentz model was simulated. Three types of frequency-dependent finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) methods, such as recursive convolution (RC), auxiliary differential equation (ADE), and Z transform schemes are implemented in the 1D FDTD method. In the previous studies, there is no work to quantify the accuracy and evaluate the errors of the reflection coefficients in these schemes. In this study, the errors were quantitatively evaluated and compared. This study shows that the RC scheme calculates the reflection coefficient with first-order accuracy, while the TRC, PLRC, and ADE schemes calculate it with second-order accuracy. When the CFL number was fixed at 0.999, the Z transform scheme showed the most superior accuracy in many cases.
