Record completeness
Claims
The scheme is verified with known solutions and exhibits exponential convergence close to 10^{-14} for both single and multiple interfaces. An example with 39 interfaces is presented to demonstrate the solver's performance.
The distant interactions can be accurately approximated by a finite number of proxy source points placed on spheres surrounding the unit cell without introducing significant truncation or approximation errors that would degrade the overall convergence or accuracy for large numbers of layers.
A periodized Method of Fundamental Solutions is introduced for Maxwell's equations in bi-periodic multilayered media, achieving exponential convergence to near machine precision.
