Abstract

Integrated circuits for digital, microwave and optical purposes are fabricated on layered medium substrates. The simulated image technique is an efficient tool for modeling electromagnetic phenomena in layered medium structures. In this paper, we present the discrete complex image theory which finds the simulated images of a source in multilayered media. A critical comparison is made between the discrete complex image theory and other published image theories, i.e., the exact image theory based on the Laplace transformation of the spectral function, and the approximate image theory based on the Taylor expansion of the spectral function.
