Popis: In a recent publication [1] we showed that complex shapes can be calculated efficiently in the Fourier modal method (FMM) through the concept of coordinate transformations. The new coordinate system has to be aligned in such a way that the lines of constant coordinates match the interfaces. Thus, the approach of adaptive spatial resolution (ASR) can be included easily to increase the convergence in the case of metallic materials and to simplify the derivation of appropriate coordinate systems. We are going to present the fundamental ideas of the method and show our latest examples of coordinate transformations to match such common structures as cylinders, triangles, and rotated squares.
