In this contribution, the exact solution of the electric field integral equation (EFIE) combined with the differential surface admittance (DSA) operator is presented for scattering at a homogeneous dielectric sphere. By employing a Galerkin Method of Moments with two complete sets of orthogonal vector spherical harmonics as basis functions, both operators involved are constructed with closed expressions. By comparing to the classic Mie series solution for illumination by a radial electric dipole, the DSA-EFIE approach is confirmed to yield the exact solution within 12 digits of accuracy.
An FDTD-TDDFT method for the EM/QM co-simulation of nanowire systems in the Lorenz gauge
Real-time time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) constitutes a cornerstone in the modeling of nanoscale materials. Although numerous application areas have already benefited from the technique,
