Sensitivity-Based Structural Optimal Design With Bi-Directional Beam Propagation Method for Photonic Devices in High-Index-Contrast Waveguides

This paper presents structural optimization based on sensitivity analysis exploiting a bi-directional beam propagation method (Bi-BPM) to design efficiently passive components in high-index-contrast optical waveguides. In this study, the Bi-BPM based on scaled-version Denman-Beavers iteration (S-DBI...
