TLDR
This work benchmarks several methods for implementing efficient and accurate QNM solvers for computing and normalizing the QNMs of micro- and nanoresonators made of highly dispersive materials, and compares them to elaborate standards for the computation of resonance modes.
Theory and numerical modeling of photonic resonances: Quasinormal Modal Expansion -- Applications in Electromagnetics
The idea of the modal expansion in electromagnetics is derived from the research on electromagnetic resonators, which play an essential role in developments in nanophotonics. All of the…
Continuous family of exact Dispersive Quasi-Normal Modal (DQNM) expansions for dispersive photonic structures.
TLDR
The non-uniqueness of the expansions related to the over-completeness of the set of modes is emphasized and a family of DQNM expansions depending on continuous parameters that can be freely chosen are discussed.
NEP: a module for the parallel solution of nonlinear eigenvalue problems in SLEPc
TLDR
The paper discusses how the NEP module has been designed to fit the needs of applications and provides a description of the available solvers, including some implementation details such as parallelization.
Normalization, orthogonality, and completeness of quasinormal modes of open systems: the case of electromagnetism [Invited].
The scattering of electromagnetic waves by resonant systems is determined by the excitation of the quasinormal modes (QNMs), i.e. the eigenmodes, of the system. This Review addresses three…
Generalised normal mode expansion method for 1 open and lossy periodic structures 2
We describe and demonstrate the extension of permittivity mode expansion (aka 9 generalized normal mode expansion, GENOME) to open and lossy periodic structures. The 10 resulting expansion gives a…
Negative index materials: at the frontier of macroscopic electromagnetism
The notions of negative refraction and negative index, introduced by V. Veselago more than 50 years ago, have appeared beyond the frontiers of macroscopic electromagnetism and purely formal during 30…

Photonics in highly dispersive media: the exact modal expansion.
We present exact modal expansions for photonic systems including highly dispersive media. The formulas, based on a simple version of the Keldyš theorem, are very general since both permeability and…
