Transformation optics simulation method for stimulated Brillouin scattering
arXiv:1610.04428 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.94.063818
Abstract
We develop a novel approach to enable the full-wave simulation of stimulated Brillouin scattering and related phenomena in a frequency-domain, finite-element environment. The method uses transformation optics techniques to implement a time-harmonic coordinate transform that reconciles the different frames of reference used by electromagnetic and mechanical finite-element solvers. We show how this strategy can be successfully applied to bulk and guided systems, comparing the results with the predictions of established theory.
