Abstract

In this paper we report the first multi-dimensional, full-wave, vector Maxwell’s equation solutions to problems describing the interaction of ultra-short, pulsed beams with a nonlinear Kerr material having a finite response time. These solutions have been obtained with a nonlinear finite difference time domain (NL-FDTD) method which combines a nonlinear generalization of a standard, FDTD, full-wave, vector, linear Maxwell’s equation solver with a currently used phenomenological time relaxation (Debye) model of a nonlinear Kerr material.
