We currently have no paper publication on Meep, so you should simply reference the web site:
- D. Roundy, M. Ibanescu, P. Bermel, A. Farjadpour, J. D. Joannopoulos, and S. G. Johnson, The Meep FDTD package, http://ab-initio.mit.edu/meep/
Or, in BibTeX format:
@Misc{Meep:web, author = {David Roundy, Mihai Ibanescu, Peter Bermel, Ardavan Farjadpour, J. D. Joannopoulos, and Steven G. Johnson}, title = {The {Meep} {FDTD} package}, howpublished = {{\ttfamily http://ab-initio.mit.edu/meep}}, year = 2006, }
If you want a one-sentence description of the algorithm for inclusion in a publication, we recommend something like:
- Simulations were performed with the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method [ref FDTD], using a freely available software package [ref Meep].
where as a general reference on the FDTD method you might use, for example, Allen Taflove and Susan C. Hagness, Computational Electrodynamics: The Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method (Artech: Norwood, MA, 2000).
If you use the harminv feature to extract resonant-mode frequencies and/or decay rates, then you probably want to also cite the "filter diagonalization method" used by harminv: V. A. Mandelshtam and H. S. Taylor, "Harmonic inversion of time signals," J. Chem. Phys. 107 (17), 6756-6769 (1997). Erratum, ibid. 109 (10), 4128 (1998).
