Abstract

We present a new method for sensitivity analysis of photonic crystal devices and nanophotonic devices in general. The algorithm is based on the finite-difference frequency-domain method and uses the adjoint variable method and perturbation theory techniques. We show that our method is highly efficient and accurate and can be applied to the calculation of the sensitivity of transmission parameters of resonant nanophotonic devices.
