Abstract
An improved method for the calculation of light–matter interaction that appears with the light propagation through multilayer periodically corrugated structures consisting of any dielectric or absorptive media is reported. The method is based on the differential formalism for a system of Maxwell’s equations when the boundary conditions are simplified by the introduction of a curvilinear nonorthogonal coordinate system. The solution for electromagnetic fields was written in the form of the superposition of partial plane waves. The obtained method essentially reduces computation time and increases accuracy compared with the Chandezon method. For a numerical demonstration of the proposed method, calculation of long-range surface plasmon polaritons was performed. The presented method can be enhanced for calculations of light propagation through thin absorptive films with various periodic profiles at both film interfaces.
