“…RCWA has been used to model a large variety of periodic anti-reflective structures in three dimensions (which are considered two dimensional gratings). Most of the structures modeled with this method are hexagonally or square packed, GRIN, moth-eye-like nipple arrays [ 60 , 72 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 ] (see Figure 21 ) or, more specifically, tapered and truncated cones [ 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 ], nanocones and nanopillars [ 88 ], core/shell GRIN structures [ 89 , 90 ], and inverted moth eyes [ 67 ]. Many of these studies concentrated on designing the optimal period, height, or refractive index profile for the moth eye structures and some explored the effects of angles of incidence of the plane wave of light.…”
