High efficient method for calculating the Straton Chu integral for problems of interaction of laser radiation with materials

The interaction of femtosecond laser pulses with materials is usually modelled within the approach of nonlinear Maxwell equations. The laser pulse in the calculations is initiated by specifying the conditions for the electric field at the boundary of the computational domain, which is located at a distance of 100–200 micron from the focus. The usually used Gaussian distribution for the radius and time in the boundary conditions are not applicable for such pulses. It is necessary to consider a real optic system, or a system, which can be realized. In the presented paper we address the situation in which the laser pulse is created by the reflection of parallel pulse from a parabolic mirror. To determine the field near the focus we use the Stratton – Chu integral (SCI), with fast oscillating sub-integral function. It makes very difficult to calculate SCI. In the presented paper a highly efficient method allows to overcome this difficulty. The main idea is that a change of variables is made in the integral, which, in the case of a short pulse being important for applications, allows calculating the integral over one of the variables once for all times. In addition, for this variable, the integrand is smooth and its calculation does not require large computational resources. The paper investigates the accuracy of calculating the SCI by the proposed method and demonstrates its high efficiency
