Numerical Matrix Method for Calculation of Resonator Mode

Youqing Wang

Abstract

A numerical matrix method for calculation of optical resonator modes with media inside is proposed. The transmission matrix of an optical resonator is obtained by dividing the mirror into finite grids based on Fresnel-Kirchoff diffractive integral equation. Then according to self-recurrence method, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, can be calculated by solving the transmission matrix, which define the distribution of modes of optical resonator. This method will greatly benefit the research of new resonators.
