Abstract

In this paper, a novel finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method with recursive relationships among operators is developed for magnetized dispersive medium, named as the shift operator FDTD(SO-FDTD). The dielectric property of magnetized dispersive medium is written as rational polynomial function, the relationship between D and E is deduced in time-domain. And its high accuracy and efficiency are verified by calculating the reflection and transmission coefficients of electromagnetic waves through a collision plasma slab.
