Predicting Scattering From Complex Nano-Structures via Deep Learning by Yongzhong Li, Yinpeng Wang, Shutong Qi, Qiang Ren, Lei Kang, Sawyer D. Campbell, Pingjuan L. Werner, Douglas H. Werner

“…The fully trained framework can be three orders of magnitude faster than a conventional EM solver based on the finite difference frequency domain method (FDFD). Furthermore, the proposed DL framework has demonstrated robustness to changes in design variables which govern the nano-structure geometry and material selection as well as properties of the incident wave, shedding light on universal scattering predictions at the nano scale via deep learning techniques. …”
