Simulation of Optical Nanostructures via a Fourier Modal Method — •Sabine Essig^1,2,3 and Kurt Busch^1,2,3 — ¹Institut für Theoretische Festkörperphysik, Universität Karlsruhe — ²Karlsruhe School of Optics & Photonics (KSOP), Universität Karlsruhe — ³DFG Forschungszentrum Center for Functional Nanostructures (CFN), Universität Karlsruhe

We present simulation results for three-dimensional periodic nanostructures via the Fourier Modal Method in combination with the Scattering-matrix approach. This method provides us with the possibility to investigate the optical properties of photonic crystals in an easy way. By carefully applying Fast Fourier Factorization rules also metallic nanostructures such as photonic metamaterials can be simulated.

In our simulations we pay particular attention to chiral metamaterials. We show calculations of transmittance and reflectance spectra as well as electric and magnetic field distributions inside these structures.
