7Maxwell’s Equations in Anisotropic Media
Maxwell’s curl equations in anisotropic media are:
These can also be written in a matrix form that makes the tensor aspect of μ and ε more obvious.

8Types of Anisotropic Media
There are three basic types of anisotropic media
isotropic
uniaxial
biaxial
Note: terms only arise in the off-diagonal positions when the tensor is rotated relative to the coordinate system.

12Notes on a Single Interface
• It is a change in impedance that causes reflections
• Snell’s Law quantifies the angle of transmission
• Angle of transmission and reflection does not depend on polarization.
• The Fresnel equations quantify the amount of reflection and transmission
• Amount of reflection and transmission depends on the polarization

14Boundary Condition Problem
If we model a wave hitting some device or object, it will scatter the applied wave into potentially many directions. We do NOT want these scattered waves to reflect from the boundaries of the grid. We also don’t want them to reenter from the other side of the grid (periodic boundaries).

16How We Prevent Reflections in Lab
In the lab, we use anechoic foam to absorb outgoing waves.
![Page 17: EMLAB 1 The Perfectly Matched Layer (PML). EMLAB 2 Lecture Outline Review of Lecture 12 Background Information The Uniaxial Perfectly Matched Layer (UPML)](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f1c5503460f94c32bc5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
EMLAB
17No PAB in Two Dimensions
If we model a wave hitting some device or object, it will scatter the applied wave into po-tentially many directions. Waves at different angles travel at different speeds through a boundary. Therefore, the PAB condition can only be satisfied for one direction, not all di-rections.

18Absorbing Boundary Conditions
We can introduce loss at the boundaries of the grid!

EMLAB
19Oops!!
But if we introduce loss, we also introduce reflections from the lossy regions!!
![Page 20: EMLAB 1 The Perfectly Matched Layer (PML). EMLAB 2 Lecture Outline Review of Lecture 12 Background Information The Uniaxial Perfectly Matched Layer (UPML)](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f1c5503460f94c32bc5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

We need to introduce loss to absorb outgoing waves, but we also need to match the im-pedance of the problem space to prevent reflections.
Match the Impedance

EMLAB
21More Trouble?
By examining the Fresnel equations, we see that we can only prevent reflections from the interface at one frequency, one angle of incident, and one polarization.
![Page 22: EMLAB 1 The Perfectly Matched Layer (PML). EMLAB 2 Lecture Outline Review of Lecture 12 Background Information The Uniaxial Perfectly Matched Layer (UPML)](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f1c5503460f94c32bc5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
EMLAB
22Anisotropy to the Rescue!!
It turns out we can prevent reflections at all angles and for all polarizations if we allow our absorbing material to be doubly‐diagonally anisotropic.

24Designing Anisotropy for Zero Reflection (1 of 3)
We need to perfectly match the impedance of the grid to the impedance of the absorb-ing region. For an absorbing boundary in air, this condition can be thought of as
One easy way to ensure impedance is perfectly matched to air is:

25Designing Anisotropy for Zero Reflection (2 of 3)
If we choose , then the refraction equation reduces to1bc
These are no longer a function of angle!!
With this choice, the reflection coefficients reduce to

If we further choose a = b , the reflection equations reduce to
Reflection will always be zero regardless of frequency, angle of incidence, or po-larization!!

27The PML Parameters (1 of 3)
So far, we have
Thus, we can write our PML in terms of just one parameter sz.
This is for a wave travelling in the +z direction incident on one boundary.

28The PML Parameters (2 of 3)

“Stretched” Coordinates
The factors sx, sy, and sz are effectively “stretching” the coordinates, but they are “stretching” into a complex space.

Justification Inside the z‐PML, sx = sy = 1. This is valid everywhere except at the extreme corners of the grid where the PMLs overlap.
This also implies that the UPML and SC‐PML have nearly identical performance in terms of reflections, sensitivity to angle of inci-dence, polarization, etc.
We drop the non‐stretching terms.

36The Perfectly Matched Layer (PML)
The perfectly matched layer (PML) is an absorbing boundary condition (ABC) where the impedance is perfectly matched to the problem space. Reflections entering the lossy regions are prevented because impedance is matched. Reflections from the grid bound-aries are prevented because the outgoing waves are absorbed.

44Why a UPML
• A convolutional PML (stretched coordinate PML) is currently the state‐of‐the‐art in FDTD.
• A UPML offers benefits to frequency‐domain models that are useful for begin-ners.
The models can be formulated and implemented without considering the PML. The PML is incorporated simply by adjusting the values of permittiv-ity and permeability at the edges of the grid.

51The PML is Not a Boundary Condition
• A numerical boundary condition is the rule you follow when a finite‐difference equation references a field from outside the grid.
• The PML does not address this issue.
• It is simply a way of incorporating loss while preventing reflections so as to absorb outgoing waves.
• Sometimes it is called an absorbing boundary condition, but this is still a misleading title because the PML is not a boundary condition.
