Abstract

A new approach to electromagnetically analyzing random structures is proposed. By increasing a grating period consisting of a deterministic random structure, optical performance of the element approaches a certain converged value. Thus, characterizing random structures becomes possible in a single-run computation without a statistical procedure. We demonstrate the performance of this method using one-dimensional cylinder arrays.
