Dynamically-scaled local patch method for numerically simulating the scattering effects of small particles into large beams

Abstract

Simulating the propagation of a large beam with high spatial resolution is a common challenge in optics due to both computational time and memory demands. While computational time sets a practical limit on what one can simulate, memory resources are an absolute hard limit. In this paper, we report a novel method to overcome a gap in spatial scale between the beam and the relatively small optical disturbance that needs to be modeled, such as those due to particulate contamination. The method splits the entire propagation chain into to two paths: a specular field propagation on coarse grids and scattered fields on fine grids. Especially for the latter, we dynamically apply high-resolution local patches for individual particles. Not limited to particulate contamination, this method is applicable to any tiny discontinuous structures on the beam propagation path without memory overflow triggered.
