Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) methods have become a cornerstone in the numerical solution of Maxwell’s equations, enabling detailed electromagnetic analysis across a wide range of applications.

Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) methods have long served as a workhorse for simulating electromagnetic wave propagation. In dispersive media, where material responses vary with frequency, the ...
