Abstract

A full-vectorial integral equation method is presented for calculating near fields and far fields generated by sources in the presence of general finite-sized dielectric structures with cylindrical symmetry. The method is relevant for modeling of a class of antenna designs and some optical components with cylindrical symmetry, e.g., vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers, microdisk lasers, and light-emitting diodes.
